Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not the total length of small intestine effects outcomes after bariatric surgery in a cohort of patients preoperatively and up to ten years postoperatively. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and vertical sleeve gastrectomy will be the surgical groups in this study. We aim to determine if bowel length has a significant effect on long term weight loss or other nutritional deficiencies in this bariatric cohort.
Primary Outcome
Body weight will be measured preoperatively (within 30 days of the operation) as the baseline body weight, then postoperatively up to ten years from the time of initial surgery. Measurements will be made per routine clinical care and not solely for research purposes. Exact time points before and after surgery that body weight will be measured, except for the day of surgery, will differ between patients in the study. Change in body weight over time will be measured annually, adjusted for baselin
