SADI can be a primary weight loss surgery or a revisional operation on an existing gastric sleeve. This procedure may be the most effective next step in achieving long-term weight loss.
The Single Anastomosis Duodeno–Ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI) is a newer procedure that combines a sleeve gastrectomy and a bypass of the small intestine from the duodenum (the intestine just beyond the stomach) leaving between 2.5 and 3metres of small bowel to absorb food. It is a robust weight loss procedure, based on an older method that has been modified to reduce the risk of complications from malnutrition. Long-term outcome data is limited, however, the process is gaining in popularity as an option for managing weight regain after sleeve gastrectomy.
It is most beneficial for patients in the morbidly obese and super morbidly obese weight range with or without associated diabetes and lipidemia.
Benefits
- Effective long-term weight-loss method
- Lower risk of gastrointestinal side-effects
- Helps to reduce or resolve obesity-related disease
- Particularly effective in patients with type-2 diabetes
Candidates for SADI
SADI is an effective way for patients with a BMI over 40 to achieve significant weight loss. It is well-suited to patients looking for a long-term solution to excess weight and obesity-related comorbidities like type-2 diabetes. It is also effective for patients who already have a gastric sleeve and need a revision to address significant regain or complications from a previous sleeve.
