In the world of single-anastomosis duodenal switch surgery (SADI-S), many surgeons follow a one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to common channel length. However, this study shows that tailoring the common channel length based on individual measurements of total bowel length (TBL) significantly reduces reoperations and late complications. A group that underwent SADI-S with TBL measurements had notably fewer reoperations and complications compared to the pre-TBL group. This approach enhances patient outcomes and ensures better postoperative recovery.
