ABSTRACT: Background
Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) are common weight loss procedures. Our meta-analysis compared these procedures for the treatment of morbid obesity and related diseases.Methods
We systematically searched the PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library through January 2018. The percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL), improvement or remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hypertension were analyzed and compared.Results
Thirty-three studies with 4109 patients were included. Greater decreases in excess weight were found in patients who received LSG at 6 months (weighted mean difference (WMD) -9.29, 95% confidence interval (CI): -15.19 to -3.40, P?=?.002), 12 months (WMD -16.67 95% CI: -24.30 to -9.05, P?ConclusionLSG is a more effective procedure than LAGB for morbidly obese patients, contributing to a higher %EWL and greater improvement in T2DM.
