Retrospective analysis of 100 morbidly obese patients who underwent a transit bipartition (TB) procedure ("Single Anastomosis Sleeve Ileal bypass") for inadequate weight loss or weight recidivism after a previous sleeve gastrectomy. Data were collected prospectively in strictly pseudonymous form. The primary endpoint of the study is weight loss at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after TB. A subgroup analysis evaluates the effect of the length of the common channel. Secondary endpoints include impact on obesity related comorbidities (type 2 diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, gastroesophageal reflux) as well as safety.
