ROUX-EN-Y GASTRIC BYPASS
Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery
In this surgery stomach is stapled to create a small pouch which defines the quantity of food that can be consumed at one time after surgery. Small bowel is divided and joined to this stomach pouch at a calculated level. Proximal portion of small intestine is bypassed to prevent food coming in contact with digestive juices. This arrangement further decreases absorption of food. It also helps in resolving other problems like diabetes, high blood pressure, joint pains etc.
Advantages of Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery
- Major Advantages: This arrangement of bowel does not allow liver and pancreas juice to reenter stomach so it is very useful in patients with reflux disease (GERD). It results in adequate weight loss which is maintained over long-term and also good resolution of obesity associated diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure etc.
- Major Disadvantages: Is more aggressive surgery than sleeve gastrectomy. Part of bowel is bypassed which can result in vitamin deficiency if vitamin supplements are not taken as per advice of the doctor. It also involves two joints – one between small bowel and another between small bowel and stomach.
