Gastric Bypass Dallas


The Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Dallas – often called Gastric Bypass Dallas – is considered the ‘gold standard’ of weight loss surgery.
The Procedure
There are two components to the procedure. First, a small stomach pouch, approximately one ounce or 30 milliliters in volume, is created by dividing the top of the stomach from the rest of the stomach.
Most importantly, the rerouting of the food stream produces changes in gut hormones that promote satiety, suppress hunger, and reverse one of the primary mechanisms by which obesity induces type 2 diabetes.
Advantages
1.    Produces significant long-term weight loss (60 to 80 percent excess weight loss)
2.    Restricts the amount of food that can be consumed
3.    May lead to conditions that increase energy expenditure
4.    Produces favorable changes in gut hormones that reduce appetite and enhance satiety
5.    Typical maintenance of >50% excess weight loss
Disadvantages
1.    Is technically a more complex operation than the AGB or LSG and potentially could result in greater complication rates
2.    Can lead to long-term vitamin/mineral deficiencies particularly deficits in vitamin B12, iron, calcium, and folate
3.    Generally has a longer hospital stay than the AGB
4.    Requires adherence to dietary recommendations, life-long vitamin/mineral supplementation, and follow-up compliance
