This procedure involves creating a sleeve that is surgically removing two-thirds of the stomach portion and then also bypasses the first 100- 150 cm of the small intestine, and joins it as a loop to the first part of the small gut, which is the duodenum.
This is a new procedure, mainly for patients with Diabetes Mellitus with or without obesity.
This combines sleeve gastrectomy to provide the restrictive effect, and also the upper small intestinal bypass to provide malabsorptive impact, thus leading to weight reduction. Also, it induces a variety of intestinal hormonal changes, all of which lead to lowering of blood sugar levels and improved insulin secretion, thus resolving type ii diabetes mellitus even in patients who are not obese.
Advantages:
