Title: The biliopancreatic diversion with the duodenal switch: results beyond 10 years. Author: Hess DS, Hess DW, Oakley RS. Journal: Obes Surg; 2005 Mar; 15(3):408-16. PubMed ID: 15826478. Abstract: The BPD/DS, if properly performed, has the best long-term weight loss of any bariatric operation. It is easy to reverse or revise, has the least marginal ulcers, cures the highest percentage of co-morbidities, has the least failures, and permits normal although smaller meals. It is our opinion that the BPD/DS should be considered as the gold standard bariatric operation.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
