This study reports the first U.S. outcomes of the Bariatric Anastomotic Reduction System (BARSŪ) for transoral outlet reduction (TORe) in patients with weight regain (WR) following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Among three patients, the procedure achieved an average 86% reduction in gastrojejunal anastomosis diameter, mean total body weight loss (TBWL) of 10.5% at one month, and notable BMI improvements, all without major complications. BARSŪ demonstrated feasibility, safety, efficiency, and a rapid learning curve, highlighting its promise as a minimally invasive, effective alternative for TORe in managing WR post-RYGB.
