Long-term Weight Regain after Gastric Bypass: A 5-year Prospective Study

Abstract: Weight regain was observed within 24 months after surgery in approximately 50% of patients. Both weight regain and surgical failure were higher in the superobese group. Studies in regard to metabolic and hormonal mechanisms underlying weight regain might elucidate the causes of this finding.

“…6 In fact, patients with a lower postoperative gut hormone response were demonstrated to achieve a lower BW loss after gastric bypass compared with patients with a more potent postprandial response of PYY and GLP-1. 6 Patients with poor BW loss or significant BW regain after surgery 28,29 are currently left with limited therapeutic options. Surgical revision, including reduction of pouch size or lengthening of the Roux limb, 30 is frequently used despite the lack of supporting evidence in the literature.…”

“…However, there is increasing evidence of weight regain in patients after bariatric surgery 2,3 , generally occurring between 12 and 24 months post-operatively 2,4 . Weight regain increases the risk of physical function decline which negatively affects an individual's ability to undertake activities of daily living 5 .…”

“…Twenty to 50% of the patients operated are unable to achieve the desired weight loss or present a weight increase a few years after the surgery (Benotti, 1995;Magro et al, 2008). These statistics reinforce the need to investigate factors associated with these therapeutic failures.…”
