Roux En Y Gastric Bypass

Gastric bypass surgery in Hyderabad

Gastric bypass surgery, also commonly known as the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, is a type of bariatric surgery. It is one of the most common weight loss surgeries performed.  The gastric bypass surgery involved reducing the stomach size to a small pouch connecting the newly created pouch directly to the small intestine.

After the gastric bypass surgery, the food you eat will pass through the small pouch of stomach directly into the small intestine bypassing the major part of the stomach and the upper part of the small intestine. This effectively reduces the amount of fat, calories, vitamins & minerals you absorb.
