Summary
The objective of this randomized controlled trial is to compare perioperative outcomes between laparoscopic and robotic approaches in patients with severe obesity who are candidates for RYGB. The trial aims to address the following key questions: To evaluate the difference between the two procedures in terms of postoperative complications. To assess intraoperative complications, conversion rate, mortality, operative times, postoperative hospital stay, and cost analysis for both approaches. In summary, the researchers will compare the laparoscopic and robotic approaches to determine which one leads to better perioperative outcomes
