A mini gastric bypass is a type of weight loss surgery that combines restrictive and malabsorptive procedures to help patients achieve significant weight loss.
During the procedure, the surgeon creates a small pouch at the top of the stomach, which is then connected to the small intestine. The rest of the stomach and a portion of the small intestine are bypassed, which reduces the amount of food that can be eaten and decreases the absorption of calories and nutrients.
Unlike traditional gastric bypass surgery, which typically involves creating a smaller stomach pouch and rerouting the small intestine in a Y-shape, mini gastric bypass surgery creates a longer, tube-like stomach pouch and a single loop of the small intestine. This results in a less invasive procedure with fewer incisions, a shorter hospital stay, and a faster recovery time.
The mini gastric bypass surgery can be an effective option 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.
