🗣️Hot off the press—Robotic cholecystectomy—new technology but safe principles still apply 🤖
Great work by our @SAGES_Updates Safe Chole group to highlight commitment to CVS no matter the platform

It’s an interesting trend - unclear what indications are for early adjuvant GLPs but more work to be done to understand optimal role after surgery! For primary/secondary surgical non responders, comorbids, or to augment wt loss trajectory? More to come!

Really interesting talk by @stefrohde from @OSUWexMed. De novo GLP1 RA use post op is increasing, and many providers are prescribing it within the first year! #SAGES2026 @SAGES_Updates @psweigert

Proud to share our work. Important note: GLP-1s and metabolic surgery aren’t competitors—they’re complementary tools along a treatment continuum for a chronic, relapsing disease. The field isn’t shrinking. It’s evolving.

Use of #GLP1 receptor agonists surged among patients eligible for metabolic and #BariatricSurgery from 2018 to 2025, while surgery utilization decreased by nearly half, especially for sleeve gastrectomy.
