2nd Restricts food choice. Certain foods are poorly tolerated, for example sugar and fat. Consumed these food items will lead to the discomfort, abdominal pain and sometimes dizziness.

3rd relief absorption of food. Since most of the stomach and upper small intestine being passed (bypass), it will reduce the absorption of sugars and fats, thus reducing calorie absorption.

Technique:
By telescope operation performed through five small holes 1 cm, separating the top from the rest of the stomach. Small intestine is shared around 75 cm below the duodenum, and the lower part connected now to the “mini-tummy”. Approximately 100 cm below the “mini tummy” stitched thin arms together. Hereby being passed the stomach, duodenum and upper small intestine.

The food runs from the “mini tummy” directly into the small intestine and reconciled only 100 cm below the galdesyrene and pancreatic enzymes. The operation takes 1 ½ hours to discharge two days after surgery.
