Description
Mini gastric bypass surgery is a minimally invasive weight loss procedure that involves creating a small pouch in the stomach and rerouting a portion of the small intestine to the new pouch. This results in the reduction of the stomach's capacity to hold food and the absorption of calories by the body. The surgery typically begins with small incisions in the abdomen, through which the surgeon inserts a laparoscope, a thin tube with a camera and surgical tools attached. The surgeon then divides the stomach to create a smaller pouch, leaving the rest of the stomach intact. The small intestine is then cut and rerouted to the new pouch, where it is connected to the smaller stomach pouch. The entire procedure typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes and is performed under general anesthesia. Patients are usually able to go home the same day or the day after surgery and can resume their normal activities within a few weeks. Mini gastric bypass surgery is considered a safe and effective weight loss procedure for individuals who are obese or have difficulty losing weight through diet and exercise alone. However, like any surgery, it does carry some risks, including bleeding, infection, and blood clots. It is important to discuss the risks and benefits of the surgery with a qualified surgeon before deciding to undergo the procedure.
