Figure 2 Impact of bariatric surgery on percentage excess weight loss over two years follow-up: There was no significant difference in percentage excess weight loss at 1 year post-op (P = 0.
36). At 2 years follow-up however, patients who had undergone LRYGB had significantly greater excess weight loss (P = 0.044) compared with those who had undergone LSG. %EWL were compared using Student’s t test. LSG: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy; LRYGB: Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass; %EWL: Percentage excess weight loss.
