Background Obesity is caused by a combination of excessive food energy intake, lack of physical activity, and genetic susceptibility, although a few cases are caused primarily by genes, endocrine disorders, medications, or psychiatric illness. The main aim of obesity therapy is weight loss and maintenance by dietary interventions and increased physical activity. Aim of the Work to review two of the most commonly performed modalities of weight loss namely Sleeve Gastrectomy, Gastric Bypass, and to study their early post-operative complications, outcomes, effects regarding excess body weight loss (EBWL), life style changes and sustainability. Patients and Methods This is a prospective comparative randomize study included 40 patients presented with morbid obesity with BMI range between (40 to 60 kg/m2) were treated 20 cases by laparoscopic sleeve Gastrectomy and 20 cases by laparoscopic Gastric Bypass (15 cases one anastomosis gastric bypass – 5 cases Roux-en-Y bypass) in Ain Shams Hospital during the period from October 2017 till May 2018. Cases were followed up monthly for 6 months and after 1 year. Results Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy has higher incidence of complications (15%) than the incidence of complications of Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass (5%). Conclusion Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy and Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass are both safe and effective procedures for the surgical management of morbid obesity. Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass has slightly higher mean of (EBWL%) than Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy at 6 months, and a higher mean of (EBWL%) than Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy at 1 year follow up.
