Basic Information Concerning Gastric Bypass Surgery In Mexico

By Linda Ruiz


Gastric bypass is a procedure performed on the stomach to divide it into two portions. The portions are made up of an upper division and a lower pouch. The intestine is then arranged in a way as to link to both the upper and lower portions of the belly. There are several different kinds of gastric bypass surgery in Mexico. The variations arise from the different ways through which the intestine is relinked to the two portions of stomach.

The functional volume of the belly is reduced a lot by all the gastric bypass surgical procedures. The way the stomach physically and physiologically responds to food also changes. Various conditions can lead to the prescription of these procedures to patients. The most common conditions that lead to the prescriptions are hypertension, type 2 diabetes, morbid obesity, and sleep apnea. Morbid obesity is only treated using this process when the body mass index exceeds 40th mark.

The procedure has several variations including Roux en Y distal and proximal and MGB. Among the three variations, Roux en Y proximal is practiced more. In the United States, this is the most commonly practiced bariatric surgery too. The intestines are sub-divided at about 45 centimeters under the lower outlet of stomach. The process is given the name because the intestine is made into a Y arrangement afterwards.

The Y arrangement is made out of about 80 to 150 cm of small intestine. The remainder of the tube is left for use in absorbing nutrients into the body. After the process is done, the stomach of a patient feels full of food after taking little food. Afterwards in-difference to food and increasing satiety are felt. The absorption of fats, starches and other food nutrients is highly reduced.

This surgical procedure leads to a reduced stomach volume by over 90 percent. Since a normal stomach can stretch to accommodate more food, the pouches are constructed from tissues of the belly that are least vulnerable to expansion. The pouches retain their original volume although the connection between the belly and the intestine may enlarge over time.

Since the enlargement takes time, by the time it occurs a significant level of weight loss will already have occurred. Also, stretching and enlargement that occurs over time is only capable of supporting a reasonable level of body weight. The sensation of a filled stomach felt when one starts to eat is because the walls of the belly stretch immediately food is ingested. The stretching sends nervous signals to the brain to inform it that the belly is full even if only a small quantity of food has been eaten.

To avoid causing discomfort or vomiting, meals should be taken slowly and carefully. For maximum efficiency of treatment, 5-6 meals should be taken daily. Snacks, confectionaries, or cookies should be avoided between meals because they can impede the efficiency of treatment.

Meals should comprise of one quarter to one half of a cup. Progress is made slowly to one cup within a year. Some people experience slight obesity again after violating the rules.
