Outcomes of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in the super obese: comparison of body mass index 50-60 kg/m2 and≥60 kg/m2 with the morbidly obese

Readmission and reoperation rates were similar in the BMI 40-50, 50-60, and≥60 kg/m2 groups. Super-obese and super-super-obese patients are not at greater risk for surgical complications compared with those with lower BMIs.
