What is Mini Bypass Surgery?

Mini-gastric bypass surgery consists of creating a small pouch from the stomach and joining it to the small intestine, reducing not only the total stomach capacity but the food travel within the intestine. This modifies the digestive process and helps the body to absorb lesser calories and to feel satisfied with less food.

 
This process has become very popular because of the low risk it represents to the patient and by its simplicity to perform for the medical team. It is very similar to conventional gastric bypass surgery but takes shorter to heal due to mixing the best of the bypass with the best of the gastric sleeve surgery.

 
Just as conventional gastric bypass surgery, mini bypasses use two reductive methods: restrictive, which reduces the amount of food the patient can eat; and malabsorption, which redirects and shortens the digestive process to absorb fewer calories. Together, both methods guarantee greater weight loss.

Mini Bypass Surgery process

This surgery is done by creating a new stomach section at approximately one-tenth of its total size. That is what makes this procedure less invasive and easy to perform compared to other bariatric surgeries.

Recovery and healing

This process’s simplicity ensures a fast healing and less painful recovery than other results obtained with alternate methods to the mini bypass.
Although each body and each patient can react differently, healing quality and speed can be favored by how much the patients attend the medical and diet directions. Those that decide to have this surgery must be willing to adopt not only temporary measures to help the body recover, but also permanent habits to guarantee the patients’ general health and wellness after having the surgery done.
Even if malabsorptive method effects are needed to get the weight-loss results that the patients are looking for, it also implies for them to start taking food supplements permanently. These will provide the body with the vitamins and minerals it requires and that has stopped to absorb from the food due to the mini bypass process.
