Obesity Surgery, 2002
Two patients underwent gastric bypasses and had uneventful hospital courses. In the early postoperative periods, both developed severe, protracted vomiting, weakness, and hyporeflexia. After thorough laboratory and clinical evaluations by neurologists, the patients were diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome, although there were many atypical features.

Gastric bypass in morbid obesity
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1980Gastric operations for the treatment of morbid obesity have been standardized. They require close adherence to specifications for success. The upper stomach volume should be measured intraoperatively and fashioned to a capacity of 50 ml at a pressure of 25 to 30 cm of saline. The outlet should be no larger than 12 mm in diameter.

Evolution of the Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass
Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques, 2003Obesity is recognized as a health problem of epidemic proportions. Surgical intervention for the treatment of obesity is a well-studied and effective method. Various procedures have been utilized over the past decades. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass has emerged over the last 20 years and is currently the most commonly offered surgical treatment.

Gastric-bypass-induced pneumothorax
Gastrointestinal Radiology, 1985Substernal gastric bypass has been recently revived to palliate unresectable esophageal carcinoma. We report an unusual postoperative complication of gastric bypass: recurrent pneumothorax responding to nasogastric tube decompression of a distended thoracic stomach.

Outcome of Gastric Bypass Patients
Obesity Surgery, 2002The authors analyzed previously studied outcomes of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP), examined pre-surgical factors of post-surgical outcomes, and examined some of the psychosocial benefits.A retrospective chart review was conducted of 138 patients who underwent RYGBP between 1997 and 2000.

Gastric bypass and glucose metabolism
Internal Medicine Journal, 2009AbstractRoux‐en‐Y gastric bypass leads to a marked improvement of glucose control. The mechanisms are only partly known. Gastrointestinal hormones may play a role. Of these, glucagon‐like peptide 1 and peptide YY have been most consistently associated with the beneficial effects of gastric bypass on glucose metabolism and weight. In this paper, a short

Gastric Bypass Operation for Obesity
World Journal of Surgery, 1998AbstractGastric bypass is considered by many to be the gold standard for surgical treatment of obesity. Gastric bypass was a natural evolution from gastric operations that were used for the treatment of peptic ulcer disease. Gastric bypass, first described in 1967, has undergone many modifications. It presently exists as a hybrid operation.

Gastric Bypass for Morbid Obesity
Radiology, 1977Gastric bypass operations have been performed on more than 500 patients at the University of Iowa for the treatment of morbid obesity. With this procedure, almost the entire small intestine remains available for absorption, and the metabolic complications which have been described after jejuno-ileal bypass surgery have not occurred.
