Mini Gastric Bypass
Mini Gastric Bypass procedure for weight loss involves crafting a smaller stomach pouch and rerouting a segment of the small intestine, similar to gastric bypass. However, it differs in its creation of a longer, narrower gastric tube, promoting a more significant reduction in food absorption. Mini Gastric Bypass offers lifelong portion control and substantial weight loss, often
accompanied by notable improvements in obesity-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes.
