Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass
According to two organizations, the American Society for Bariatric Surgery and the National Institutes of Health, Roux-en-Y (pronounced ROO-en-why) gastric bypass surgery is the "gold standard" and most performed bariatric surgery in the United States.
In this procedure, the surgeon creates a small stomach pouch and then constructs a "bypass" for food. The remainder of the stomach is not removed, but it is completely stapled shut and divided from the stomach pouch. The bypass allows food to skip parts of the small intestine. By skipping a portion of the small intestine, the body cannot absorb as many calories or nutrients.
As with every type of bariatric surgery, compliance with a well rounded program can lead to significant loss of excess body weight and an overall improvement in the quality of life.
