After weight reduction surgery, more problems were observed in case of super-morbidly obese patients with higher rates of failure. Therefore, a two-step proposition comprised of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) precedes laparoscopic roux-en-y gastric bypass (LRYGB) was first tabled by Regan et al. in 2003 to solve the complications faced by the super-morbid patients. Over time more investigations were made to modify the surgical method to improve the postoperative quality of life of heavily morbid patients. Sleeve gastrectomy is often now practiced in isolation because it describes effectiveness as regards to excess weight loss (EWL) and determination co-morbid obesity condition.
