35.3 Reasons forFailure
To understand failure options, we need to understand reasons for failure. There are several reasons why a patient may be unsuccessful.
35.3.1 Patient Comorbidities
Unrecognized patient comorbidities have the potential to lead to surgical failure. Conditions such as alcoholism or other addictions can be missed preoperatively. Consumption of excessive alcoholic beverages can lead to excess weight gain through increased caloric intake from the beverages themselves and by leading to poor judgment when making dietary decisions. Furthermore, calories from alcohol are completely absorbed even after a duodenal switch, making the malabsorptive component of the surgery ineffective. Careful preoperative screening can help to avoid this problem.
35.3.2 Psychological Conditions
Psychological conditions can contribute to failure to achieve adequate weight loss. Though most patients undergo psychological screening prior to surgery, certain psychological conditions can be missed. A study of long-term outcomes following duodenal switch demonstrated that of nine patients with weight loss “failure,” six of them had an undiagnosed psychological condition [2]. Examples of these conditions include bulimia, neuroses, and phobias. Thorough preopera­tive psychological evaluation is necessary to prevent missing these.

35.3.3 Physiologic/Anatomic Reasons
There are anatomic reasons that can lead to poor weight loss following duodenal switch. First, a gastric sleeve that is too large can negatively affect weight loss. Most surgeons aim for a gastric volume of less than 200mL following surgery. Next, inadequate limb length can be responsible for poor weight loss following duodenal switch due to a lack of malabsorption. Malabsorption is a key component of weight loss following a duodenal switch [11]. Most surgeons aim for a common channel between 50 and 150cm and a biliopancreatic limb of 100–550cm to achieve this.
35.3.4 Lack ofSupport
In patients who have regained weight following bariatric surgery, many report feel­ing a lack of support from friends, family, and healthcare providers [12]. One study showed that patients who are unmarried or unemployed were more likely to experi­ence weight loss failure compared to others, suggesting that a lack of social support may contribute to weight loss failure [2]. In addition, patients who skip follow-up appointments have been shown in some studies to have more weight regain than those who attend them [1]. Ensuring that a patient has access to adequate support via healthcare providers and/or peer support groups may help to mitigate this.
35.3.5 Noncompliance withLifestyle Changes
Bariatric surgery is most effective when combined with lifestyle changes, including improved nutrition and exercise habits. However, many patients are unable to maintain this and adopt poor habits following surgery. This can lead to weight gain or failure to lose weight. Such habits may include frequent snacking/grazing, high carbohydrate or sweet intake, and high intake of liquid calories among other things. In addition, inactivity and a sedentary lifestyle can contribute to surgical failure. Preoperative education and setting long-term expectations are imperative to ensuring postoperative success.
Oftentimes, there is no one simple cause for surgical failure. Rather, the etiology is multifactorial. Physicians should consider all of these options when evaluating a post-duodenal switch patient for failure.
35.4 Patient Assessment
When a patient presents after duodenal switch with inadequate weight loss or weight recidivism, a thorough history should be obtained. The history should focus on behaviors such as alcohol intake and eating habits, which may help to uncover any
326
J. L. Holihan and E. Wilson
previously undiagnosed comorbidities and psychological conditions. A careful dietary history should be taken including:
• Calorie consumption.
• Quality of diet, sweets.
• Portion size.
• Binge eating.
• Protein/carbohydrate intake.
• Snacking/grazing.
This will help uncover any unhealthy habits a patient may have. Food diaries can be a useful adjunct in determining dietary behaviors. Patients should also be ques­tioned about physical activity and dedicated exercise time. Pedometers or other activity trackers may be utilized.
Next, the patient should be assessed for possible anatomic causes for the failure. Patients with higher gastric volumes have been shown to have more weight gain than those with lower gastric volume [1]. Sleeve size can be evaluated via upper GI or EGD, with ideal size of less than 200mL.
Next, limb length should be assessed. In general, the common channel should be 100cm. The alimentary limb is 150cm. The biliopancreatic limb is 100–550cm [13]. There is no easy way to determine limb length. Reviewing old operative reports may provide this information; however, even operative reports can be inaccurate if measuring was not meticulously performed. The most denitive method for mea­suring limb length is laparoscopy, but this is often unnecessary.
Since limb length is important to ensuring that the patient has adequate malab­sorption, it can also be determined indirectly. Malabsorption can be measured by measuring fecal fat, fat-soluble vitamin levels, and frequency of bowel movements. Increased fecal fat levels are expected after duodenal switch, and normal levels may indicate inadequate limb length [13]. In addition, bowel movements are generally more frequent following duodenal switch, with patients experiencing around 20 per week [14]. If a patient has no change in frequency of bowel movements following surgery, this may also indicate a lack of malabsorption.
Finally, once it has been determined that there is no medical or psychological history or anatomic reason for surgery failure, a patient’s resources and social sup­port can be evaluated. Many patients will benet from closer follow-up and account­ability, which may have been lacking. Evaluation of partner and household habits may be prudent.
35.5 Options Following Failure
Treatment strategy will depend on ndings from the patient assessment; however, treatments can be classied as medical or surgical.

35.5.1 Medical Options
Some patients have no correctable anatomic abnormality with their duodenal switch. These patients may benet from an intensive medical weight loss program. Such a program is aimed at improving their dietary habits, improving food choices, and increasing physical activity/exercise. Measuring basal metabolic rate can be a use­ful adjunct to give patients a better idea of their individual caloric needs. In addition, such a program can provide support and accountability for patients that may help them to adhere to a healthier new lifestyle.
In some cases, anti-obesity medications can be used in conjunction with nutrition and exercise to improve weight loss. There are many weight loss medications avail­able (Table35.2) [15]. There is a lack of high-quality evidence supporting these, particularly after duodenal switch. However, small case series and observational studies suggest possible benets following bariatric surgery. Referral to an obesity medicine specialist who can prescribe and monitor an appropriate anti-obesity med­ication should be considered.
Another option for additional weight loss following duodenal switch is the use of an oral superabsorbent hydrogel. Unlike anti-obesity medications, which can have frequent adverse effects, oral superabsorbent hydrogels are pharmacologi­cally inert and are actually marked as a medical device rather than as a medica­tion. These superabsorbent hydrogels are comprised of a polymer matrix that can absorb approximately 100 times their weight in water [16]. The particles function by occupying space in the stomach and small intestine, with the goal of promot­ing fullness [16]. This has not been studied in post-bariatric surgery patients. However, in non- bariatric surgery patients, patients treated with oral superabsor­bent hydrogels had a higher percentage of weight loss compared to those treated with placebo [17]. The most frequent side effects were mild gastrointestinal effects. While further studies are needed, particularly in patients following bariat­ric surgery, oral superabsorbent hydrogels are a promising option for additional weight loss.

35.5.2 Surgical Options
Surgical options exist for patients found to have an anatomic abnormality on assess­ment. For those found to have a dilated sleeve, it is sometimes possible to perform a re-sleeve gastrectomy. The technique for this is as follows: laparoscopic lysis of adhesions is carefully performed to reveal the full sleeve. A 36–40 Fr bougie is inserted. An area approximately 5cm proximal to the pylorus up to the esophageal hiatus is completely cleared. A linear stapler is used to divide any redundancy in the gastric sleeve along the bougie.
Another option for a dilated sleeve is an endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty. This is an endoscopic technique that reduces stomach volume through plication. Plication is not permanent and generally lasts 1–2years. This is often long enough to allow patients to achieve additional weight loss. In this technique, 6–12 sutures are placed in a running fashion starting at the antrum and moving proximally [18]. Patients are put on a post-bariatric surgery liquid diet, just as if they had had a primary bariatric surgery, following this procedure.
If a lack of malabsorption is thought to be the problem, the common channel can be shortened. The channel should measure 100cm. The distal end of the biliopan­creatic limb can be divided, and a new, distal anastomosis can be performed. An alternative to this is increasing the length of the biliopancreatic limb, the bypassed portion of the small bowel. The normal length of the biliopancreatic limb is vari­able, ranging from 100 to 550cm. The length of the patient’s current biliopancreatic limb will determine how much it can be shortened.
35.6 Conclusions
Failure following duodenal switch is uncommon, with 0–14% of patients experienc­ing inadequate weight loss or weight recidivism. A careful and thorough patient assessment can reveal the underlying etiology for failure, allowing for successful treatment and improvement in weight loss.

Causes ofWeight Regain After Duodenal Switch andIts Derivatives

36.1 Introduction
Classic duodenal switch (DS) and its derivative procedures are shown to be more effective than other common malabsorptive procedures such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) both in achieving durable weight loss and resolving comorbidities [13]. However, certain reservations against classic DS like technical complexities and potential side effects such as frequent bowel movements and fat, micronutrient, and protein-calorie malnutrition render it unpopular and its practice to be scattered into only a handful of high-volume centers worldwide. As a result, classic DS com­prises less than 5% of the annual bariatric procedures performed globally [4, 5].
Over the past decade, certain modications have been introduced to the classic DS procedure via the single anastomosis DS (SADS) derivatives, which have shown promising results while addressing some of the apprehensions toward classic DS procedure. The most established of these derivatives are the single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass (SADI) and stomach intestinal pylorus-preserving surgery (SIPS) [6, 7]. The modications implemented in SADS operations have the poten­tial to change the procedure trends in the coming years especially in the current era of predominance of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and the potential need for effective second-stage procedures for those with severe obesity with body mass index (BMI)50kg/m2 and salvage surgeries for others with weight recidivism or refrac­tory obesity-related comorbidities [8, 9].
Since its introduction in the late 1990s and despite the unpopularity and reluc­tance toward classic DS procedure [10, 11], there are several studies that report on

its long-term outcomes [1214]. However, the literature on long-term outcomes of the SADS derivatives is still lacking [15]. Moreover, information on weight loss failure and regain after classic DS and its derivative procedures are even more scarce. Nevertheless, this chapter aims to report on the incidence and the various causes of weight regain after these hypo-absorptive bariatric procedures based on the available body of literature.
36.2 Long-Term Outcomes ofDuodenal Switch
andDerivatives
36.2.1 Classic DS
Among established bariatric procedures, classic DS has been shown to offer patients the most profound and sustained weight loss [16]. When compared to RYGB as the most common malabsorptive procedure performed worldwide, classic DS is shown to lead to a superior and sustained weight loss with a difference of an extra 7–9 BMI points up to 5years after surgery especially in patients suffering from severe obesity (BMI50kg/m2) [17, 18]. According to reports from high-volume centers with large cohorts and long follow-up time >10years after surgery with excellent reten­tion rates (72–92%), classic DS procedure leads to a sustained weight loss equiva­lent to 71–75% excess weight loss (EWL), 55kg in absolute weight loss, and a 20-point drop in the BMI [1214, 19]. These drastic and decade-long weight loss estimates are virtually identical among all these long-term case series from four high-volume centers that include two of the original pioneering institutions where classic DS was rst proposed and performed in.
As one of the pioneering centers, Hess et al. have provide a comprehensive account of 1404 consecutive DS procedures performed at their institution over a 16-year period [19]. They obtained a complete follow-up on 92% of the 182 eligible patients who had their surgery more than 10years prior and reported a mean of 75% EWL after classic DS.Moreover, 94% of these patients had achieved and main­tained a satisfactory weight loss of 50% EWL up to 12years after surgery [19]. Similarly, in their 20-year comprehensive account of consecutive DS procedures in 2615 patients, Marceau etal. also report a mean weight loss of 55.3kg equivalent to a 71% EWL or a 20-unit drop in BMI that was maintained for 5 to 20years after surgery with a mean follow-up time of 9.8years [12]. They had an overall 92% complete follow-up for the entire cohort and 82% retention rate among the 383 patients that were at least 15years out from their DS procedures [12].
In another long-term study, Blockmans etal. report on the 10+ year outcomes of 153 patients that had undergone laparoscopic classic DS at their center (79% 10-year follow-up rate) [13]. At a mean follow-up time of 10.8years, they observed a mean absolute weight loss of 54kg and again a 20-point decrease in BMI [13]. Moreover, when they grouped patients in those with morbid obesity vs. severe obesity (≥50kg/

333
m2), they observed that the amount of weight loss was even more profound in the heavier subgroup by a mean of 4units in their respective BMI drop [13]. These nd­ings demonstrate the long-term efcacy of the classic DS procedure in achieving a profound and durable weight loss especially in patients suffering from severe obesity.
In terms of long-term improvements in associated comorbidities, hypo- absorptive procedures like the biliopancreatic diversion along with classic DS are also shown to lead to profound and sustained improvements especially in metabolic syndrome [1, 2, 12, 13]. In their 20-year comprehensive report with a mean follow-up of
9.8years after DS (92% follow-up rate; N=2615), Marceau etal. observed a 93.4% sustained remission rate of diabetes (blood glucose<6mmol/L; glycated hemoglo­bin A1C<6.5%), where nearly 40% of the patients were diabetic at baseline; only 4% of those diabetics who obtained remission suffered a relapse but only after a mean of 9.6years after surgery, and they observed no new incident cases of diabetes in the patients that were not diabetic at baseline [12]. At a mean follow-up time of nearly 11years after classic DS, Blockmans etal. also observed signicant rates of long-term resolution of metabolic syndrome with 86% complete remission of dia­betes and 81% and 95% resolution of hypertension and dyslipidemia, respectively [13]. However, they observed an alarming 43% rate of de novo gastroesophageal reux disease (GERD) in their cohort of 115 patients with at least 10years of fol­low- up after classic DS (gastroscopy was not performed systematically) [13]. This statistic could be alarming given that SG as the restrictive component of classic DS is a reux-generating procedure and GERD can potentially lead to Barrett’s esopha­gus, which in turn can progress from metaplasia to dysplastic disease and adenocar­cinoma. Nevertheless, a recent population-level data comparing the reux-protective procedure (RYGB) to the reux-prone procedures including SG and classic DS (1860 classic DS procedures) did not show a signicant difference in the incidence of esophageal cancer at a mean follow-up time of 7.6years and up to 12years after bariatric surgery [20].
36.2.2 Single Anastomosis DS Derivatives
As mentioned earlier, the DS derivatives all aim to address some of the technical and long-term nutritional concerns with the classic DS procedure. The two most established and studied of these derivative operations are SADI (introduced in 2007) and SIPS (introduced in 2016), which are essentially the same procedure with a small difference in the length of their proposed common channel and are essentially grouped together as SADS [6, 7].
As per the updated statement by the International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Disorders (IFSO) on SADS, as of March 2020, there were only 42 case series and 8 case reports on SADS most of which were reported after 2018 [15]. Furthermore, studies with long-term data (5 years) are even more scarce with only three studies from two centers all of which with small cohorts and

low reported follow-up rates (<60%) [15]. There has only been one prospective study comparing SADS with the classic DS but with only short-term outcomes reported so far at 1year [21]. Hence, contrary to classic DS, there is a lack of data on long-term outcomes of SADS, and the majority of reported information is medium-term at best.
Two recent systematic reviews have demonstrated a sustained EWL of 85% equivalent to a 19-point decrease in BMI units up to 2years after SADS [22, 23]. Between both systematic reviews, 13–42% of the included studies comprised of SADS surgeries as salvage or second-stage procedures after a previous SG.As for improvements in comorbidities, SADS derivatives are also shown to be associated with 74% resolution of diabetes, 60–95% for hypertension, and 68–77% for dyslip­idemia [22, 23]. Given the promising short- to mid-term outcomes especially in the era of SG predominance and the need for salvage procedures especially for patients suffering from severe obesity, SADS procedures have been endorsed by prominent international bariatric societies including IFSO and the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS), who evidently call for more prospective studies to assess outcomes [15, 24, 25].
36.3 Weight Regain After Duodenal Switch andDerivatives
36.3.1 Classic DS
The convincing long-term (10 years) efcacy of the classic DS procedure in achieving profound and durable weight loss especially in patients suffering from severe obesity has turned it into a superior procedure especially as a second-stage surgery for super-super obese patients with BMI ≥ 60 kg/m2 [12, 13, 19, 26]. Conversions to classic DS have also been shown to have superior results or used as ultimate revisional attempts to address signicant weight recidivism after other common procedures including SG and RYGB [9, 2729].
Various dichotomous denitions exist to describe success of weight loss after bariatric surgery such as percent EWL, percent total weight loss, percent excess BMI loss, or change in BMI [30]. Perhaps the most commonly used cutoff to dene success after bariatric surgery is achieving 50% EWL, which is also not ideal given the lack of correlation with specic factors such as improvements in comor­bidities and other patient reported outcomes like quality of life and satisfaction [31]. Another limitation of using 50% EWL cutoff is that percent EWL may signicantly overestimate primary weight loss failure in patients with severe obesity at baseline (BMI>50kg/m2) compared to their lower weight counterparts due to distortion from the initial BMI [32]. Furthermore, weight regain/recidivism is not dened in a standard fashion and very poorly reported in various studies [32, 33]. Moreover, given that weight regain always increases with time since both surgery and the nadir weight, the timing of assessment should always be reported and considered when interpreting the data, and weight regain should be reported a minimum of 3years and ideally long-term (5years) after bariatric surgery [34].
