2. RNY is the MOST Dangerous Form of Bariatric
Surgery
By Every measure, in Every study RNY
Highest Death Rate, Highest Leak Rate,
Highest Early Complications,
Highest Major Complication Rate, Highest Rate Bowel
Obstruction
Highest Bleeding Rate, Highest Re-operation Rate
Highest PE Rate....
RNY is Without Question, the most dangerous form
of Bariatric Surgery; References >100 Studies
3. Mini-Gastric Bypass
Very Safe/Very Good Results
Gastric + Bypass (Restrictive + Malabsorptive)
Minimal Weight Regain
Minimal GERD
Very High Patient Satisfaction
Very easy to Revise
4. What is the BEST Source Medical Truth:
Randomized Controlled Prospective Trials!
The Randomized Controlled Trial,
Considered
The ''Gold Standard''
For Source of Medical Truth
5. What is the TRUTH About RNY Gastric Bypass

37% serious complications
3.3% Leaks!!!
1 patient suffered
Sepsis, anoxic brain injury and amputation!
7. Basics of MGB
Both Restrictive + Major Fat Malabsorption
Technically Straight forward
Low Risk (Complications/Leak)
Very Low Risk of SBO (0-0.3%)
Very High Weight Loss; Rare Regain
Bile Reflux rare and easily Rx (Experience with >12,000 MGB)
Fear of Gastric Cancer unfounded
(a Hot Dog is more dangerous risk of Gastric Cancer)

9. MGB One of the Most Effective & Safest
MGB Series
Findings in all series are the same:
1. Short operation, low risk of short and long term
complications
2. Excellent short and long term weight loss
75-100% EWL, (Better than BPD)
3. Revisable and Reversible
4. Minimal Risk of Bile Reflux in Knowledgeable Hands
10. One Thousand Consecutive Mini-gastric Bypass:
Short- And Long-term Outcome
1,000 patients who underwent MGB from November 2005 to January
2011
Operative time and length of stay for primary vs. revisional MGB were
89 ± 12.8 min vs. 144 ± 15 min (p < 0.01) and
1.85 ± 0.8 day vs. 2.35 ± 1.89 day (p < 0.01)

11. One Thousand Consecutive Mini-gastric Bypass:
Short- And Long-term Outcome
Five (0.5%) patients presented with leak.
Four (0.4%) patients, all revisions with severe bile reflux Rx by
stapled latero-lateral jejunojejunostomy (Braun).
Excessive weight loss occurred in four patients easily revised.
Percent excess weight loss (EWL) of 72.5% occurred at 18 months.

12. One Thousand Consecutive Mini-gastric Bypass:
Short- And Long-term Outcome
The 50% EWL was achieved for 95% of patients at 18 months and for
89.8% at 60 months.
MGB is an effective, relatively low-risk, and
low-failure bariatric procedure.
In addition, it can be easily revised, converted,
or reversed.

Surgical and Comparison Cohorts Using Health Plan Data Jonathan P. Weiner, et al. JAMA Surg.
2013;148(6)
18. Long-term follow-up from the Swedish Obese Subjects
study reported in JAMA showed that although fewer
medications were used by bariatric patients compared
with controls, the bariatric patients used substantially
more hospital resources.
19. A formal cost-effectiveness study using very high-quality
data from the US Department of Veterans Affairs did
not show a cost benefit for Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.
20. Band/RNY Failure to
Demonstrate benefit
Analysis of BlueCross Blue Shield patients for 6 years failed to
demonstrate a benefit for Band or RNY
Coupled with findings that bariatric surgery confers little to no longterm survival benefit,4 these observations show that
bariatric surgery does not provide an overall societal benefit.

October 2001 and September 2010, 1,657 patients who received
gastric bypass surgery (1,163 for LMGB and 494 for LRYGB)
Surgical time was significantly longer for LRYGB (159.2 vs. 115.3
min for LMGB, p < 0.001).
The major complication rate was higher for LRYGB (3.2 vs. 1.8%, p
= 0.07).
5 years after surgery, the mean BMI was lower in LMGB than
LRYGB (27.7 vs. 29.2, p < 0.05) and
LMGB also had a higher excess weight loss than LRYGB (72.9 vs.
60.1%, p < 0.05).
Late revision rate was LRYGB 3.6% and MGB 2.8%

RESULTS:
Mean BMI at two years was 28.5±3.9 kg/m2 and at three
years 27.4±4.5 kg/m2 after MGB
BMI at two years 32.7± 6.04 kg/ m2 and at three years
33.6±5.1 kg/m2 after BPD
One year resolution of diabetes was accomplished in:
100% in MGB group
95% in BPD group.
65. MGB More Effective than BPD
Dr Tacchino MGB vs BPD
Tacchino’s conclusions:
“Both MGB and BPD resluted in excellent weight loss,
excellent resolution of co-morbities with low risk of long
term complications.
The MGB was associated with greater weight loss than
BPD.
Improvements in other cardiovascular risk factors and
quality of life were similar after both procedures.”

16 Years Later (Rutledge)
6,385 patients who underwent MGB from September 1997 to June
2011
Mean operative time 41 minutes and
median length of stay 1 day
Early complications occurred in 4.9%.
44 (0.7%) patients had anastomotic leaks.
Three (0.05%) patients presented with dypepsia/bile reflux not
responsive to medical therapy and were successfully treated by
Braun side-to-side jejuno-jejunostomy.
99. 6,385 Consecutive Mini-Gastric Bypasses:
16 Years Later (Rutledge)
Gastritis/dyspepsia/marginal ulcer was the most serious long term
complication; routinely treated medically.
Excessive weight loss occurred in 1% of patients; treated by take
down of the bypass.
Mean % excess weight loss (EWL) of 78%.
10 year weight regain was mean 4.9%. >50% EWL was achieved for
95% of patients at 18 months and for 92% at 60 months.
6% of patient had inadequate weight loss or significant weight regain
were treated by revision, (addition of ~2 meters to the bypass).
100. Remember!
All Medical and Surgery Can Fail!
Bariatric Surgery Procedures are Known to Fail
Therefore
ALWAYS CHOOSE
Operation that Can Be Revised Safely!!
NEVER CHOOSE
Operation Revision is Dangerous!

I have recently reviewed the literature on gastric cancer and am very knowledgeable about
the risk of gastric cancer
119. Question
Answer
H. Pylori Treatment Normalizes Risk of Gastric
Cancer in Ulcer Patients.
Agree 100%
The association between H pylori infection and
the development of gastric cancer is well
established
Agree 100%
Gastric cancer can be prevented by treating H.
Pylori, eating a diet of fresh fruit and vegetables
and avoiding smoking, alcohol and nitrates in
preserved foods
Agree 100%
120. Question
Answer
There are many large scale studies that show no
increased risk of gastric cancer after Billroth II:
Disagree 60% !!!
Unoperated Gastric Ulcer patients have double the risk
for Gastric Cancer
Agree 100%
There are some studies showing a slight increased risk
of gastric cancer 20-30 years after Billroth II. But these
patients had the Billroth II overwhelmingly for Ulcer
Disease &
Ulcer and Gastric Cancer have a common etiology; H.
Pylori.
Agree 100%

MAGNITUDE OF THE PROBLEM
• Population based study, 338 Billroth II pts
• Followed 25-years
• 5,635 person-years
• Only 2 Cancers Found in 5,000 years
• Predicted 2.6 cancers (relative risk 0.8)
Schafer et al, Risk of gastric carcinoma after treatment for benign ulcer disease. N Engl J Med. 1983 Nov 17;309
142. BARIATRIC SURGEONS FEAR BILLROTH II
MAGNITUDE OF THE PROBLEM
• 338 Billroth II pts, Followed 25-years
• 5,635 person-years
• Only 2 Cancers in 5,000 pt years follow up
• RATE of Gastric Cancer is Declining
• 24 - 50% Expected Decrease from 1983
• Future risk ~1 patient / 5,000 pt years
143. ULCERS INCREASE RISK CANCER
• Meta-analysis:
7 studies Small increased risk
5 studies No Increased Risk
• Studies with increased Risk; Flawed
• Billroth II = Surgery Rx Ulcers
• ULCERS increase risk of Gastric Cancer!
• Ulcers and Gastric Cancer Common Etiology
=H. Pylori=
144. ULCERS INCREASE RISK CANCER
•3,078 gastric cancer vs. 89,082 controls
•Ulcer increases risk gastric cancer
=(relative risk 1.53)=
•Same as Increased Risk reported Billroth II
•Many other studies confirm these findings:
•Ulcer Increases Risk Gastric Cancer
•Ulcers & Gastric Cancer:
•Common Etiology =H. Pylori=
145. BARIATRIC SURGEONS FEAR BILLROTH II
GASTROENTEROLOGISTS IGNORE BILLROTH II
• Hundreds of thousands of people with Billroth II’s
• If cancer IS SUCH A BIG RISK…
• Shouldn’t gastroenterologists be looking for these people,
screening them with endoscopy?
• No, there is no recommendation for BII follow up screening;
Why? THE RISK IS LOW
• 63,000 yrs Follow up 23 cancers = Gen Pop.
146. RISK OF GASTRIC CANCER AFTER
BILLROTH II IS LOW
• Follow-up study of 1000 patients
• 22-30 year follow-up
• 196 endoscopy and biopsy No Cancer of the gastric
remnant seen
• Endoscopic screening will be “unrewarding”

147.
148. WHAT CAUSES GASTRIC CANCER?
ITS NOT BILLROTH II
• Diets rich in fried, salted, smoked or preserved foods increased cancer
risk in many studies.
• Foods contain nitrites and these chemicals can be converted to more
harmful compounds (carcinogens) by bacteria in the stomach.
• Diets high in fruit and vegetables protects against Cancer
• Stomach cancer is much more common in smokers and in those with
heavy alcohol intake.
• H. Pylori, No H. Pylori No Cancer
149. DIET AND CANCER PREVENTION
• Avoid ETOH, Tobacco,
Processed & Preserved
Meats, Salt
• RX H. Pylori,
• Eat Fruits and Veggies,
Yogurt and
• Drink Green Tea

• O: Objectives “Ideal” Weight Loss Surgery
• A: RNY, Band, Sleeve, MGB
• C: MGB meets almost all objectives/success criteria
• T: Fear of Bile Reflux & Gastric Cancer
Not Supported by the Data

167. WHY CRITICS ONLY CARE FOR MGB?
• Why do Critics only care about the
Mini-Gastric Bypass?
• 100,000’s of people already have and are living with and
are getting the Billroth II every day
• Why haven’t concerned bariatric surgeons stepped
forward to stop all general, trauma and oncologic
surgeons from performing this Billroth II surgery?
168. WHY CRITICS ONLY CARE FOR MGB?
•Why do Critics only care about the
Mini-Gastric Bypass?
•Why haven’t concerned bariatric surgeons stepped
forward to start a fund to help suffering Billroth II patients
get needed conversions of their surgery
to Roux-en-Y?
•Why don’t they write letters to the editor calling for the
Billroth II to be declared a operation non-grata?
169. WHY CRITICS ONLY CARE FOR MGB?
• Why do Critics only care about the
Mini-Gastric Bypass?
• Why haven’t concerned bariatric surgeons stepped
forward to national funding for lifetime endoscopic
screening of Billroth II patients to find dreaded gastric
cancers?
• It seems odd doesn’t it?
• There is a simple reason
170. WHY CRITICS ONLY CARE FOR MGB?
• There is a simple reason
• The critics of the MGB do not do those things because
they are ...
• Such actions are Not supported by the data
• The Billroth II and the MGB are both good operations

the medical literature
171. THE TIDE BEGINS TO TURN
TO THE MINI-GASTRIC BYPASS
• “Not too long ago, the bariatric community questioned the role of the
mini-gastric bypass and its appropriateness as a durable operation for
obesity.”
• The experience of Lee et al. with a large cohort suggests some
answers.”
• Michel M. Murr, M.D.
• “The Journal continues to commit to open, spirited, and balanced
discussions that are supported by data and withstand the test of
common sense.”

172. Mini-Gastric Bypass:
9 YEARS LATER! OUT PERFORMS RNY
• New results of the MGB:
• “1,322 patients, 23 (1.7%) had revision
Follow-up of 9 years.”

173. Patient Survey:
MGB OUT-PERFORMS BAND & RNY
• Follow up survey of bariatric surgery results in 1,500
patients’ friends, family and acquaintances
• Patient Reported Success in Friends Family:
36% RNY,
24% Band and
93% MGB
174. EXAMPLE FEAR & DECISION MAKING
SBO VS. GASTRIC CANCER
• Which is more Deadly?
• Gastric Cancer or Small
Bowel Obstruction?
• Which is more
fearsome?
175. 11+ RNY STUDIES INTERNAL HERNIA BOWEL
OBSTRUCTION
• 1 - 16% Internal Hernia /Small Bowel Obstruction
• Follow Up 1-10 years (only 7% at 10 years)
• Note: Dead patients cannot return for follow up
• =15/18 patients, ReOp, failed closure USA=
176. DEATH AFTER
SMALL BOWEL OBSTRUCTION
• 877 patients who underwent 1,007 operations for
SBO from 1961 to 1995
• Risk of bowel obstruction increases over time

185. FOLLOW UP EFFECT
•
Unbiased Population based studies => Poor Results of RNY
•
Positive Results of RNY reported from RNY centers
•
Suffer from “Follow Up Effect”
•
Patient Returns to clinic doing well: Greeted Warmly with Great Joy
•
Patient Returns to clinic doing poorly: Greeted with anger and disapproval
•
Successful pt => Good Follow Up / Failed pt tacitly sent away
•
Now; Center reports excellent results; (30%) follow up
•
Weight Regain, Band Erosion, Death
•
Not Seen, Not Reported
