Comparative analysis of the single-anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) to established bariatric procedures: an assessment of 2-year postoperative data illustrating weight loss, type 2 diabetes, and nutritional status in a single US center

Background: The sleeve gastrectomy (SG), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), and single-anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with SG (SADI-S) are recognized bariatric procedures. A comparison has never been made between these 3 procedures and especially in different body mass index (BMI) categories. Objective: The study aimed to analyze a large cohort of patients undergoing either laparoscopic (L) SG, LRYGB, or LSADI-S to evaluate and compare weight loss and glycosylated hemoglobin level. The secondary aim was to compare the nutritional outcomes between LRYGB and LSADI-S. Setting: Private practice, United States. Setting: Private practice, United States. Methods: This is a retrospective review of 878 patients who underwent LSG, LRYGB, or LSADI-S from April 2014 through October 2015 by 5 surgeons in a single institution. For weight loss analysis, the patients were categorized into 4 different categories as follows: patients regardless of their preoperative BMI, patients with preoperative BMI <45 kg/m(2), patients with preoperative BMI 45 to 55 kg/m(2), and patients with preoperative BMI >55 kg/m(2). Results: A total of 878 patients were identified for analysis. Of 878 patients, 448 patients, 270 patients, and 160 patients underwent LSG, LRYGB, and LSADI-S, respectively. Overall, at 12 and 24 months, the weight loss was highest with LSADI-S, followed by LRYGB and LSG in all 4 categories. At 2 years. the patients lost 19.5, 16.1, and 11.3 BMI points after LSADI-S, LRYGB, and LSG, respectively. In addition, the weight loss was highest in patients with preoperative BMI <45 kg/m(2) and lowest in patients with preoperative BMI >55 kg/m(2) at 12 and 24 months. Also, there were no statistically significant differences between the nutritional outcomes between LRYGB and LSADI-S. The LSADI-S had significantly lower rates of abnormal glycosylated hemoglobin than LRYGB and LSG at 12 months (P < .001). Conclusions: The weight loss outcomes and glycosylated hemoglobin rates were better with LSADI-S than LRYGB or LSG. The nutritional outcomes between LRYGB and LSADI-S were similar.
