Özet
Introduction: Obesity has increased in frequency over recent years. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is the most commonly used technique worldwide, followed by the laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB). This study aims to compare the effects of these two techniques, LSG and LRYGB, on the patients' quality of life. Material and Methods: All patients who underwent surgery or postoperative checkups at our obesity clinic between December 2018 and December 2019 completed two face-to-face questionnaires: the Short Form 36 Health Survey and the Obesity-related Problems Scale. Information on each patient such as demographic data, American Society of Anesthesiologists scores, any previous surgeries, preoperative and/or postoperative complications, the type of surgery, and time elapsed since surgery was compared, retrospectively. Results: No significant statistical differences were found between the two procedures. A significant improvement in the postoperative quality of life was observed in all patients. Scores for female patients were observed to be lower than for male patients. No significant statistical difference was observed between the two age groups (50 years and older or <50 years) for either the LSG or LRYGB patients. Higher body mass index levels have prolonged hospital stay and score lower on many of the parameters.
