According to a 2021 evidence update, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) patients were more likely to maintain weight loss over five years, with a reduced relapse rate in Type 2 diabetes. However, RYGB was associated with a higher frequency of follow-up surgeries and hospitalizations due to complications. [2]
Roux-en-Y reconstruction following partial or complete gastrectomy for stomach cancer. [4] Roux-en-Y hepatico jejuno stomy used to treat (macroscopic) bile duct obstruction which may arise due to: a common bile duct tumour or hepatic duct tumour (e.g. resection of cholangiocarcinoma) [5] a bile duct injury (e.g. cholecystectomy, iatrogenic, trauma)
Minimally invasive procedures (i.e. adjustable gastric band) tend to have less complications than open procedures (i.e. Roux-en-Y). [ 27 ] [ 34 ] Similar to other surgical procedures, there is a risk of atelectasis (collapse of small airways) and pleural effusion (fluid buildup in lungs), and pneumonia which tends to be less associated with ...
An adjustable gastric band is an inflatable silicone prosthetic device that is placed around the top portion of the stomach. This procedure can be performed as a revision procedure for many patients who have had a previous stomach stapling, gastroplasty procedure, or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery but have regained weight.
Combined restrictive and malabsorptive techniques are called gastric bypass techniques, of which Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RGB) is the most common. In this technique, staples are used to form a pouch that is connected to the small intestine , bypassing the lower stomach, the duodenum , and the first portion of the jejunum .
Over the years, the Billroth II operation has been colloquially referred to as any partial removal of the stomach with an end to side connection to the stomach as shown in the picture; however, technically, this picture is a modification of Billroth's operation called a partial gastrectomy with a Kronelein anastomosis where the divided end of ...
In addition, it was later found that gastric bypass can treat diabetes type-2. [8] [13] [10]: 61–76 Several of the early gastric bypass patients had bilious emesis, and Dr. Ward Griffen and coworkers at the University of Kentucky changed the Mason loop gastric bypass to a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in 1977. [8] [4] [21]
Jejunoileal bypass (JIB) was a surgical weight-loss procedure performed for the relief of morbid obesity from the 1950s through the 1970s in which all but 30 cm (12 in) to 45 cm (18 in) of the small bowel were detached and set to the side.
