Mini Gastric Bypass

MINI GASTRIC BYPASS

A safe and effective weight loss treatment.

Mini Bypass surgery is a bariatric procedure similar to conventional bypass, the difference between both procedures lies in the technique and duration of the surgery.

a safe, small, and effective procedure

Mini gastric bypass surgery is designed to reduce an individual’s food intake, and to curtail the stimulation of Ghrelin (a hunger hormone). The operation leads to less food absorption, thus the intake of fewer daily calories – leading ultimately to weight loss.

Bariatric surgeons at CIBA have extensive expertise in mini gastric bypass procedures.

A mini surgery in a few small steps:

General anaesthesia is administered
Once anaesthesia is administered, the surgeon will create a few small incisions at the abdomen
A laparoscope is inserted through the incisions to view the placement of internal organs
The surgeon first reduces the size of the stomach using the laparoscopic stapler. This process makes a significant portion of the stomach into a smaller tube-shaped pouch
A bypass is created for food to travel through to the new stomach and reach the small intestine. The whole procedure will allow the stomach to carry less food and absorb fewer calories – thus induce weight loss over time
After the surgery is complete, incisions are closed using sutures
