Lipid profile change after bariatric surgeries: laparoscopic gastric plication versus mini gastric bypass.

CONCLUSIONS: LGP would result in lipid profile improvement lasting at least for one year. Lipid-lowering effect seems to be similar between LGP and MGB. This lipid-lowering property and weight reduction might be indicative that LGP is an alternative for RYGB and MGB in selective patients. PMID: 30451582 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
