Understanding Revisional Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass for Enhanced Well-being
Are you considering revisional Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery due to weight regain following a primary Roux-en-Y Bypass (RYGB)? Here's what you need to know.
How Revisional Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Works
For patients who have previously undergone Roux-en-Y Bypass and are experiencing weight regain, revisional (corrective) surgery can be an option. The revision process may involve:
-
Pouch Re-sizing with Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty: A minimally invasive procedure to reduce the size of the stomach pouch.
-
Sugerman Distalization with Pouch Revision Gastric Bypass Surgery: A surgical technique involving distalization and pouch revision to address weight-related concerns.
