Mini gastric bypass surgery (MGB)
Mini gastric bypass (MGB) is a weight-loss surgery that is similar in some aspects to the traditional Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) but involves a simpler and shorter surgical procedure. Here is an overview of mini gastric bypass surgery:
Procedure:
Creation of a Small Stomach Pouch:
The surgeon creates a small stomach pouch, usually using a stapling device, which restricts the amount of food the stomach can hold.
Rerouting of the Small Intestine:
Instead of dividing the small intestine into two parts (as in RYGB), the surgeon reroutes a portion of the small intestine and connects it to the small stomach pouch.
Bypassing a Segment of the Small Intestine:
This rerouting bypasses a segment of the small intestine, leading to both restriction (reduced stomach size) and malabsorption (reduced absorption of nutrients and calories).
How it Works:
The reduced stomach size limits the amount of food intake, and the rerouting of the small intestine alters the absorption of nutrients and calories, contributing to weight loss.
Benefits:
Effective Weight Loss:
Mini gastric bypass is associated with significant and sustained weight loss.
Improvement in Obesity-Related Health Conditions:
Many individuals experience improvements or resolution of obesity-related health conditions, such as type 2 diabetes and hypertension.
Considerations:
Simplicity:
Mini gastric bypass is considered simpler and faster to perform compared to traditional gastric bypass surgery.
Reversibility:
While generally reversible, reversal is more complex than with some other weight-loss surgeries.
Candidates:
Mini gastric bypass is typically considered for individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or higher or those with a BMI of 35 or higher with obesity-related health conditions.
Cost of mini gastric bypass surgery (MGB) in Germany
In Germany, the cost may range from €14.600 to €16.411.
