Summary

This proposed trial is designed to answer the following questions: First, is biliary reflux to the distal esophagus present before OLGB and does it increase after the procedure? Second, does performing an OLGB with or without anti-reflux sutures make a difference in (biliary) reflux exposures of the distal esophagus? To answer these questions the investigators plan to perform a randomized, controlled trial involving two groups. Group A will undergo an OLGB without anti-reflux sutures and consists of 50 patients. Group B will receive an OLGB with anti-reflux sutures and also consists of 50 patients.

Gastroscopic evaluation for inflammation and reflux will be performed before and one year after the operation utilizing multilevel intraluminal impedance pH-monitoring (MII-pH) and intragastric Bilitec 2000™. Furthermore, the study will be blinded to the patient. Long-term weight loss, the resolution of comorbidities and the incidence of surgical complications will serve as secondary endpoints. Follow-ups will be performed at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively to assess all primary and secondary goals.
