Surgical therapy to help the severely overweight has been performed for the past 40 years. As with every therapeutic modality, there have been changes, refinements and improvement as this therapy has evolved. Although the basic concept of gastric bypass remains intact, numerous variations are being performed at this time.

Effect of gastric bypass on gastric secretion
The American Journal of Surgery, 1976Gastric bypass as a 90 per cent gastric exclusion operation was used in 393 patients with massive obesity to limit food intake. Stomal ulcer has occurred in 1.8 per cent of such patients or one ulcer per 140 man years of observation. The studies of indwelling fundic pH and of gastric acid secretion from the excluded stomach indicate that acid secretion

Conversion from Gastric Bypass to Sleeve Gastrectomy for Complications of Gastric Bypass
Surgery for Obesity and Related Diseases, 2015Complications after gastric bypass (RYGB) are well documented. Reversal of RYGB is indicated in select cases but can lead to weight gain. Conversion from RYGB to sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has been proposed for correction of complications of RYGB without associated weight gain.

Gastric bypass in the very obese is a technically difficult and tedious procedure done in the attic of the peritoneal cavity. However, with careful attention to pre-, intra-, and postoperative detail, it is reasonably safe, effective, and relatively free from unmanageable complications.

Nearly all morbidly obese patients with satisfactory postoperative weight loss experience substantial improvement in the quality of their lives. Improved health status is characterized by increased exercise tolerance and improvement or resolution of obesity-related comorbidities. Improvement of obesity-related medical problems (discussed in the article

Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) has a considerable failure rate. Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) is one of the rescue options. This study aims to compare the complication rates and outcomes between LAGB converted to LRYGB and primary LRYGB.A retrospective analysis was performed in all patients converted from LAGB to LRYGB ...

Conversion of proximal to distal gastric bypass for failed gastric bypass for superobesity
Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 1997The purpose of this study was to analyze outcome following malabsorptive distal gastric bypass (D-GBP) in superobese patients who were reoperated for recurrent obesity comorbidity after a failed standard gastric bypass (S-GBP). Twenty-seven formerly superobese patients with a failed S-GBP converted to a D-GBP were studied.

Conversion of Jejunoileal Bypass to Gastric Bypass
Archives of Surgery, 1981To the Editor .–I would like to echo Dr Wright's editorial comments regarding the article by Griffen et al, "Experiences With Conversion of Jejunoileal Bypass to Gastric Bypass" (Archives1981;116:320-324). Dr Griffen and his associates appropriately warn that patients undergoing takedown of jejunoileal bypass (JIB) will almost invariably regain weight ...

Access to the Bypassed Stomach after Gastric Bypass
Obesity Surgery, 1998The gastric bypass (GBP) Operation is progressively being widely used to treat severe obesity. One problem with this operation is that it leaves the bypassed segment of the gastrointestinal tract not readily available for either mechanical, radiological or endoscopic evaluation.

Metabolic Outcomes of Gastric Bypass
Nutrition in Clinical Practice, 2003Gastric bypass surgery may be the most successful treatment for morbid obesity. However, postoperative patients are susceptible to deficiencies of several nutrients, including iron, vitamin B12, and folate. Careful monitoring and supplementation are recommended to prevent negative outcomes of nutrient deficiencies. Metabolic benefits, on the other hand,
