Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is currently the most frequently performed bariatric procedure worldwide. Although its short- and mid-term efficacy is well established, its long-term durability particularly regarding sustained weight loss, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remission, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and quality of life (QoL) remains debated, and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) is still considered the gold-standard metabolic procedure.
