“…To date, the only available bridging method in patients with obesity is intragastric balloon (IB) insertion, which has been generally shown to be effective for pre-operative weight loss in patients with severe obesity -albeit with a relatively high complication rate of ca. 10%, as reported by Loo et al in a recent systematic review and meta-analysis [8]. However, in severely obese patients, IB placement can be rendered impossible due to critical comorbidities.…”

Der MB führte zu einer präoperativen BMI-Reduktion von 6,6 kg/m 2 und stellt angesichts des hohen Operationsrisikos bei schwerer Adipositas eine mögliche präoperative Option dar 15 .…”
