Five-year Outcomes of Sleeve Gastrectomy: A Prospective Multicenter study.

CONCLUSIONS: Five years after SG, weight loss was satisfactory; the reduction of comorbidities was significant for dyslipidemia, OSAS, and HTN, but not diabetes and GERD. Age >50 years old, BMI >50 kg/m2, and previous LAGB were independent predictors of weight loss failure.
