The roux-en-y-gastric bypass procedure changes the way the body absorbs and digests food. Gastric bypass restricts calorie intake, nutrient absorption, and changes gut hormones to help suppress the patients appetite.
Gastric Sleeve (also referred to as Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy) removes approximately 80% of the stomach to increase stomach motility and digestion, decrease the desire to eat, and reduce hunger sensation. Today, gastric sleeve is the most common option for bariatric surgery worldwide. Unfortunately, this procedure results in less than 50% of excess weight being lost.
Gastric Banding procedure is when an inflatable, adjustable silicone band is placed around the upper part of the stomach to help support weight loss. The band helps slow down food passage to decrease food intake and reduce stomach capacity. Because this procedure is the most minimally invasive and completely reversible, it’s success rate is only 50% with individuals citing inadequate weight loss, heartburn complications, and other issues after lap band placement.
Often reserved for very obese individuals, during a duodenal switch procedure 70% the stomach is removed and the duodenum (small instestine) is altered and rearranged to postpone food digestion and create mal-absorption. While duodenal switch has the highest excess weight loss percentage, it’s complexity can result in high rate of complications.
