Sleeve Gastrectomy: Surgical Technique, Outcomes, and Complications.

In conclusion, SG is an effective procedure for weight loss with a low risk for the patient to develop malnutrition. In terms of post-operative care, regular check-ups are vital to ensure a positive outcome as well as for the early detection of possible issues. Reflux and weight regain are common issues with SG in a long-term follow-up; thus, patients should be selected carefully for this procedure. PMID: 32359172 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
