A gastric bypass surgery is a weight loss surgery that combines both restrictive and malabsorptive procedures to help patients lose weight by reducing the size of the stomach and rerouting the small intestine.
During the procedure, the surgeon creates a small pouch at the top of the stomach and separates it from the rest of the stomach. This pouch is then connected to a section of the small intestine, bypassing a portion of the stomach and the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine). This reduces the amount of food the patient can eat and limits the absorption of calories and nutrients.
Gastric bypass surgery is usually recommended for people who have a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or higher, or a BMI of 35 or higher with obesity-related health problems such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnea. The surgery can lead to significant weight loss and can also improve or resolve obesity-related health conditions.
