Single Anastomosis Duodenal Switch: Effects on Weight Loss and Reduction of Weight Related Comorbidities

Background: Single Anastomosis Duodenal Switch (SADS) is a novel bariatric procedure where a single loop anastomosis is made between the first portion of the duodenum and the jejunum. Our study is an investigational study to determine if SADS results in weight loss and reduction of associated comorbidities compared with traditional bariatric procedures. We also compare the risks of nutritional and vitamin deficiencies.
