Abstract

Introduction

Majority of the studies comparing Roux en Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) are non-randomized. Moreover, few randomized studies have focussed on weight loss as the primary outcome rather than the impact on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This randomized trial compared OABG over RYGB with the hypothesis that OAGB is not inferior to RYGB in terms of remission of T2DM.

Methods

This was an open-labelled, randomized trial in which patients having a BMI greater than 30 kg/m2 with T2DM were included. The primary outcome was the remission of T2DM.

Results

In the study, 25 and 24 patients were recruited in OAGB and RYGB groups respectively. The remission rates of T2DM were similar at all timelines. The highest rate was achieved at 1 year (86.36% vs 85.71%) for both the groups and a 4-year remission rate of (72.22% vs 71.43%), for OAGB vs RYGB respectively. The % EWL was also comparable with the highest rate achieved again at 1 year (69.23% vs 66.67%) and a 4-year rate of (58.33% vs 53.33%), for OAGB vs RYGB respectively. Remission of other co-morbidities, major and minor complication rate, re-admission rate, and nutritional issues were similar in both groups.

Conclusion

OAGB is non-inferior to RYGB in terms of remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus, weight loss, and early and late complications with a shorter operating time.
