mini gastric bypass
or gastric bypass
Consists of creating a new stomach with a capacity of 40oz approx and makes a connection (anastomosis), with the small intestine, creating a new feeding circuit. Because a mini gastric bypass restricts how much you can eat and how you process your food, it is a restrictive and malabsorptive procedure. Meanwhile, other procedures like gastric sleeve surgery simply resize the stomach to help you feel full faster.
Mini Gastric Bypass also is highly recommended for patients with: Diabetes Mellitus, High Cholesterol level, Fatty Liver disease and Acid Reflux Disease. With gastric bypass surgery there is a 65% remission of Diabetes mellitus and 100% adequate control of it in the long term.
