An increasing Pnumber of individuals with obesity over the age of 60 years require bariatric surgery to treat obesity and its related medical problems. Sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass have already proven their efficacy in this population, but literature lacks reports of long-term results. The aim of this study is to compare long-term results of sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in individuals older than 60 years old.
