BENEFITS. 1  Gastric bypass surgery, in combination with diet and exercise, can successfully help patients lose 50-60% of excess weight over a period of about two years. Other procedures can result in as much as 80% loss of excess weight.
Short term studies show that the sleeve is as effective as the roux-en-Y gastric bypass in terms of weight loss and improvement or remission of diabetes. There is also evidence that suggest the sleeve, similar to the gastric bypass, is effective in improving type 2 diabetes independent of the weight loss. The complication rates of the sleeve fall between those of the adjustable gastric band and the roux-en-y gastric bypass.
