Abstract
The influence of total bowel length on gastric bypass outcomes
Highlights
Bariatric surgery is the only long-term solution to obesity-related comorbidities when other conservative measures have failed.[1,2] Diversional surgeries often offer the highest success rates when compared to restrictive procedures such as sleeve gastrectomies or gastric banding.[3]
Gastric bypass achieves weight loss by restriction of gastric capacity and earlier patient satiety and by the diversion of digestion leading to malabsorption of nutrients and modulation of the metabolic system
It is a combination of these effects that contribute to its success rate in both weight loss and reversal of comorbidities.[6]
