Influence of circular stapler diameter on postoperative stenosis after laparoscopic gastrojejunal anastomosis in morbid obesity

The results of the present pooled analysis have demonstrated a significantly increased incidence of symptomatic stenosis associated with the 21-mm circular stapler compared with the 25-mm stapler. This serves as evidence to validate the preferential selection of the 25-mm circular stapler for laparoscopic GJ bypass.
