Definition of “Weight Regain” and
“Poor Weight Loss”
• DEFINITION ARBITRARY and TEMPORAL FACTOR
• “Poor Weight Loss”
- < 30-50% of EWL after primary procedure (at least 2 years out)
• “Weight Regain”
- After “successful” weight loss, regain of “significant” weight (>
20% of weight regain from their nadir)

Causes of POOR WEIGHT LOSS after SG
• Lost to follow-up
- no guidance or education
- no accountability
- also increase risk of developing long-term
complications
• Dietary non-compliance
- due to complacency
- due to lack of guidance and/or education
- recurrence or new development of maladaptive
eating habit / disorder
Page 8
Causes of POOR WEIGHT LOSS after SG
CONT
• Increase in portion size
- sleeve dilation?
- psychologic?
Page 9
Page 10 Slide borrowed from Dr. Rudolf Weiner’s 8 year follow-up after SG
Weight regain and/or poor weight loss
is NOT an urgent indication for revision…
• A thorough evaluation is a must
- review op note, pre-op/post-op clinic notes
- obtain UGI series and EGD
- consider esophageal manometry (if UGI series abnormal)
• Evaluation with psychologist and dietician
• Proof of compliant behavior and follow-up
• Surgeon/Patient expectation

Insufficient Weight Loss and/or Weight Regain
SURGICAL OPTIONS
• Re-sleeve
• Band over sleeve
• Conversion to RYGB
• Conversion to BPD/DS
12
Insufficient Weight Loss and/or Weight Regain
Re-sleeve
• Perfect candidate:
1) has a correctable anatomic defect – dilation of sleeve
stomach
2) someone who had good weight loss, but regained some
weight despite “perfect” diet.
3) someone who had insufficient weight loss, despite “perfect”
diet
4) still doesn’t (or cannot have) gastric bypass
• If the patient does not have a correctable anatomic
defect, then not a good option (do something else)
13
Insufficient Weight Loss and/or Weight Regain
Re-sleeve
• Possible causes of sleeve dilation
- last fire of stapler > 1 cm away from GE junction
- missing posterior gastric fold of the fundus near GE junction
- missing a hiatal hernia
- creating a gastric tube that is too large
- antral dilation

Etiology of sleeve enlargement CONT
How close do you get to the GE junction?

Considerations when re-sleeving
Sleeve dilation
Page 21
• Use a smaller bougie
and/or hug the
bougie tighter
• Make sure the new
staple line stays
INSIDE the old
staple line (avoid
creating ischemic
zone)
• Anticipate thicker
tissues
AREA OF ISCHEMIA
• RATIONALE:
1) To slow passage of food bolus across the proximal part of the
stomach to achieve satiety while…
2) Maintaining fast transit of food bolus into small intestines to
trigger the “ileal break” mechanism (and other hormonal
changes)
• Another example adding a restrictive procedure to
another restrictive procedure.
- BOB (band over bypass)
- BUB (bypass under band)

Insufficient Weight Loss and/or Weight Regain
Band over a sleeve
Insufficient Weight Loss and/or Weight Regain
Band over a sleeve
• First case report of adjustable gastric banding after
“failed”gastrectomy
• 42yo male who failed to lose sufficient weight after SG
• Patient refused adding malabsorptive component due to
dependence on several anti-psychotic medications
• At 9 months from his second surgery, he has achieved 57%
EWL from his original weight of 390 lbs
23 Greenstein AJ et al. Surg Endosc 2009; 23: 884
Insufficient Weight Loss and/or Weight Regain
Band over a sleeve
• First case report of adjustable gastric
banded sleeve gastrectomy as a
primary procedure
• 39yo female, BMI 80
• Band secured 6cm distal to GE
junction, secured laterally with sutures
to peri-pancreatic tissue
• Doing well 6 weeks post-op

Page 25 Obes Surg 2009; 19: 1591-6
Insufficient Weight Loss and/or Weight Regain
Sleeve to Gastric Bypass
• Historically, BPD/DS and RYGB has been the
second part of the “staged approach” for high-risk
patients
• Sleeve-to-bypass revision are now being performed
for other indications – significant post-op GERD,
stricture, and fistula
26

Page 28 Obes Surg 2013; 23: 212-5. (France)
Technical Considerations
Sleeve to Gastric Bypass
• Straightforward… transect the gastric tube, 5-6 cm
distal to the GE junction to create gastric pouch
• Things to keep in mind…
- managing small-caliber gastric pouch
- in cases with lot of adhesions, limit dissection on the lesser
curvature of the proximal gastric tube
- be careful of clips!!!
- should the gastric tube remanant be resected?
29
Insufficient Weight Loss and/or Weight Regain
Sleeve to BPD / DS
• SG is part of the BPD / DS
• Historically, conversion of SG to BPD/DS (or RYGB)
is the expected 2nd procedure of a staged approach
for high risk patients
• But it is still being performed for insufficient weight
loss / significant weight regain
30
Technical Considerations
Sleeve to BPD / DS
• Straightforward… continue on with BPD/DS
procedure
• Things to keep in mind…
- consider re-sleeving the gastric tube (if dilation found)

How about single duodeno-ileal anastomosis DS?

-SIPS procedure

Summary
• Proper patient selection is key for any revisional
surgery, especially when done for poor weight loss
or weight regain
• Technical improvements on the way we do sleeves
have been recommended by sleeve experts to
minimize “surgical failures” as the cause of poor
weight loss or weight regain.
• Good intermediate results are possible with RYGB
and SG after failure of SG.
Page 38
Which one of these statements is FALSE regarding revisional
surgery after sleeve gastrectomy?
A) Surgical failure (i.e. sleeve dilation) is the most common
cause of insufficient weight loss and/or weight regain after
sleeve gastrectomy.
B) A more intense pre-operative evaluation should be
implemented for patients who are considering revisional
surgery for poor weight loss or weight regain.
C) When performing re-sleeving procedure, care should be taken
not to cross the previous gastric transection staple line to
avoid ischemic complications.
