What is Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass?
Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) is a bariatric surgical procedure that creates a small stomach pouch and reroutes the small intestine to it, reducing food intake and calorie absorption. It is considered one of the most effective and durable procedures for treating morbid obesity and related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and sleep apnea. It is typically recommended for patients with a BMI over 40, or over 35 with obesity-related comorbidities, who have not achieved sustained weight loss through non-surgical means.
Who may be considered?
Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.
How does it work?
Performed through small keyhole incisions using a camera and specialized instruments, this minimally invasive approach is the global standard for RYGB, offering faster recovery and reduced scarring compared to open surgery.
