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.

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

Proximal (Classic) Gastric Bypass
2011The intention of this procedure is a restriction of the size of the stomach by cutting it proximally and the creation of malabsorption by dividing the small intestine into an alimentary (Roux limb) and a biliopancreatic segment (Fig. 3.1). Both goals (restriction and malabsorption) are reached in one operation; it is therefore referred to as “combined ...
