OBJECTIVES: To compare the efficacy of various standard bariatric surgical procedures using the Bariatric Analysis and Reporting Outcome System (BAROS). Methods: This is a prospective, descriptive analytical study conducted in 2 medical institutions in Saudi Arabia. A total of 270 patients who had different bariatric surgery during the period between March 2010 and December 2012 were included. The data was analyzed and scored against 3 outcomes, excess weight loss, cure or improvement of comorbidities, and quality of life changes. Results: All patients who had different bariatric procedures were included in our study. Seventy-nine (29.3%) underwent laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGBP), 159 (58.9%) had laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), and 32 (11.9%) had laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB). Complete remission of at least one comorbidity was reported in 36% of LRYGBP, 51% in LSG, and 42% in LAGB. While all other patients have improved comorbidities. The BAROS score was good or higher in 78.5% of LRYGBP, 83.6% for the LSG, and 84.4% of LAGB patients. The average excess weight loss was 67.9% in LRYGBP, 75.8% in LSG, and 81.7% LAGB patients. Conclusion: Bariatric surgery provides a substantial reduction in excess weight, improvement and cure of comorbidities, and improvement in quality of life. Standard bariatric procedures have different degrees of outcomes that can be beneficial in selecting appropriate procedure for appropriate indications and patients.
