Sleeve Gastrectomy Compared with Gastric Bypass for Morbidly Obese Patients with End Stage Renal Disease: a Decision Analysis
2019
Introduction
The use of bariatric surgery has increased for morbidly obese patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) for whom listing on the waitlist is often restricted until a certain BMI threshold is achieved. Effective weight loss for this population improves access to life-saving renal transplantation. However, it is unclear whether sleeve gastrectomy (SG) vs Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is a more effective therapy for these patients.
