The Mini Gastric Bypass is performed laparoscopically.

Very small Button hole Incisions of 0.5 to 1.2 cm on abdomen.

1. Dividing approximately a twenty five percent section of stomach from the rest of the stomach.
2. This gastric pouch is then joined to the small intestine above the new anastomosis. Anastomosis simply means a new surgical connection.

This results in the majority of the stomach and approximately one third of the small intestine being ‘bypassed’ – meaning it is not involved in the digestion or absorption of the food you eat.

Average duration is 60-120 minutes.

It makes the stomach smaller and reroutes the intestines. 

Small stomach size will make you feel full sooner while eating.

Intestines that absorb nutrients are re-routed / shortened, causing the body to absorb fewer calories and minerals.

Restriction:   New small stomach pouch limits food intake.

Malabsorption:  Bypassing a portion of MGB results in fewer calories being absorbed, thus resulting in fast & sustained weight loss.

Hormonal:  Ghrelin, named the “Hunger Hormone” is responsible for hunger and appetite. Ghrelin level is decreased after bypass and results in reduced hunger and appetite.

High resolution of Diabetes, high blood pressure – Hypertension , high cholesterol / lipid profile , obstructive sleep apnea ( OSA ) / Snoring.

No risk of  Band or device-related side effects or complications.

Durable weight loss / bariatric procedure in the long run as it dilates less owing to a low pressure inside the pouch because of the bigger outlet as compared to the old classical bariatric /weight loss surgery techniques.

Relatively bigger pouch and outlet, which gives you some luxury for foodies / Sweet eaters / Dessert Lovers to eat a moderate volume of diet & still lose significant weight.
