Rethinking Post-Bariatric Care: Anorectal Morbidity Following Sleeve Gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
Our findings highlight that not all bariatric procedures carry the same risk for anorectal complications, and RYGB specifically warrants closer attention. These findings underscore the clinical importance of incorporating proactive assessment and management of anorectal health, including bowel habit regulation and symptom monitoring, into the routine post-operative care of bariatric surgery patients to optimize their overall well-being.
