Abstract
There is a paucity of studies comparing risk reduction of the atherosclerotic cardiovascular
disease (ASCVD) and Framingham-body mass index (BMI) Coronary Heart risk score after
a laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), and few studies have assessed the
efficacy of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG) in reducing cardiovascular risk.
