Five-year results from a three-year randomized controlled trial comparing banded and non-banded sleeve gastrectomy (SG) showed that banded sleeve gastrectomy (BSG) resulted in significantly higher excess weight loss (9%) and total weight loss (4.2%) compared to non-banded SG. Most patients experienced remission of type 2 diabetes, with no significant difference between the two groups. However, BSG had a higher incidence of postprandial regurgitation, which was the main added morbidity in these patients.
