Marginal ulcers (MU) occurred at a relatively high rate after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) compared with one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB), according to a study by researchers from the Kasr Alainy Medical School, Cairo University, Cairo, Egypt. They noted that type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and the RYGB procedure were significant predictors of MU after adjusting for the confounding factors. The authors noted that despite the success of RYGB, MU has been recognised as

The combination of a loose fundoplication utilising the excluded stomach into one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) demonstrates a notable enhancement in HRQoL compared with OAGB alone, for patients experiencing obesity and significant reflux. According to the study’s authors by researchers from Homerton University Hospital, London and Ain Shams University, Cairo, this combined approach yielded lower GERD-Health-Related Quality of Life (GERD-HRQL) scores (indicating improved
