As well as other bariatric procedures, the mini gastric bypass is a very important tool to achieve a lasting weight loss, with the benefit of performing a single anastomosis (union of the stomach with the intestine) and reduce the risk of leakage, in addition to improving diseases such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, polycystic ovary syndrome, infertility and many other diseases related to obesity.
Treatment: The mini bypass or BAGUA is a weight control and metabolic surgery where a pouch is formed similar to the gastric sleeve and only the union between the new stomach and intestine is performed without making the union between intestine and intestine or Roux-en-Y, so it is a faster surgery to perform in terms of operative time.
