Authors' recommendations:
Results consistently demonstrated that roux-en-y gastric bypass (RYGB) was associated with a greater weight reduction relative to laparoscopic adjustable gastric band (LAGB), but was also associated with a higher risk for procedural adverse events. sleeve gastrectomy (SG) appeared to be more effective than LAGB but less effective than RYGB for weight loss, and had a reduced risk for complications relative to RYGB and a higher risk for complications relative to LABG, but evidence was conflicting. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) for RYGB and LAGB were reported in two cost studies, with RYGB dominating LAGB in one analysis, thought he generalizability of these findings to a Canadian context is unclear. No guidelines recommending specific surgical procedures were identified.
