A Matched Cohort Analysis of Stomach Intestinal Pylorus Saving (SIPS) Surgery Versus Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch with Two-Year Follow-up
BackgroundIn bariatric surgery, the procedure with the highest average weight loss is the biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPDDS). A new simplified duodenal switch called the stomach intestinal pylorus sparing (SIPS) surgery with less malabsorption and one fewer anastomosis claims to have similar outcomes when compared to the BPDDS.
