Evaluation of Long-term Adverse Effects of Gastric Bypass in Omega

The omega gastric bypass (OAGB) is developing worldwide as an alternative to the Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Cases of nutrition deficiency after OAGB, in particular protein deficency, are regularly reported in the literature, raising the question of the medium/long-term safety of this procedure. In its technology assessment report issued in September 2019 (HAS, 2019), the Haute Autorité de Santé rules on the invalidity of OAGB with a 200 cm biliary limb and the lack of sufficient data on the safety of OAGB with a 150 cm biliary limb compared to RYGB. The lack of long-term data on weight, resolution of comorbidities, quality of life, and endoscopic evaluation given the risk of lower esophageal cancer is also noted.

The main objective of the study is to compare the incidence of serious adverse events related to surgery after OAGB at 10 years, according to 2 types of loop: a realization with a 150-cm biliary loop (OAGB AB150) versus a realization with a 200-cm biliary loop (OAGB AB200).

  • Persons deprived of liberty, under guardianship, or under curatorship
  • Patients included in a protocol with a conflict of interest with OMEGA10.

Treatment and study plan

Ten year evaluation

Other

Clinical, biological and endoscopic evaluation

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of serious surgery-related adverse events

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

    A serious adverse event is defined as a medical event that requires hospitalization, is life-threatening, results in persistent or substantial disability, or results in death. The "surgery-related" character will be described by each investigator in the first instance and homogenized by the group of experts designated at the beginning of the study.

Secondary outcomes

  1. incidence of serious adverse events not related to surgery

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

  2. Nutritional biological status , assessed by evaluation of malnutrition parameters

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

  3. Nutritional clinical status, assessed by dietitian evaluation

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

  4. Excess weight loss percentage

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

    calculated as follows: (weight at 10 years - initial weight) / (initial weight - ideal weight) x 100 The ideal weight is defined as the weight corresponding to a BMI = 25 kg/m2. The initial weight is the weight on the day of surgery.

  5. Metabolic comorbidities remission

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

  6. Diabetes remission

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

  7. Hypertension remission

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

  8. Obstructive sleep apnea remission

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

  9. Dyslipidemia remission

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

  10. Quality of life by BAROS score (Bariatric analysis and reporting outcome system)

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

  11. Quality of life by GIQLI score (Gastro Intestinal Quality of Life index) questionnaires

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

    The GIQLI is a score to evaluate digestive disorders in 36 items, ranging from 0 (the worst quality of life) to 144 (the best quality of life).

  12. GERD

    Time frame: 10 years after surgery

    GERD, assessed by clinical evaluation, PPI use, and endoscopic signs of GERD (gastritis, oesophagitis, anastomotic ulcer, Barrett's esophagus, gastric metaplasia, esophageal metaplasia
