Duodenal switch surgery takes place in two steps. Here, we can talk about the first gastric sleeve surgery. During this operation, approximately 80% of the stomach is removed and the remaining part of the stomach takes the form of a thin tube. It is very important not to forget that sleeve gastrectomy surgery is an irreversible procedure, after this point, the procedure cannot be reversed in any way. With this procedure, the volume of the stomach, which has a volume of approximately 1.5 – 2 liters, is reduced to 120 milliliters.
Afterward, the small intestine connected to the stomach for the bypass process is separated and a common channel is created in two separate ways. It is possible to reduce the volume of the stomach with the duodenal switch operation. In this way, no matter how much the patient wants to eat, he/she quickly reach a feeling of fullness at some point because his/her stomach shrinks. The pathways opening to the small intestine with the bypass also allow less absorption of nutrients and fewer calories taken into the body.
Duodenal switch is applied to obese patients, but it should be known that this operation is also applied to diabetes patients with high body mass index too. This operation can be completed with a single operation, or in some cases, it can proceed as two different operations. This completely depends on the patient’s health status and the doctor’s preferences. If necessary, sleeve gastrectomy surgery is performed with the first operation. After this surgery, a bypass can be performed with a different surgery 6-18 months later. Thus, patients lose almost 70% to 100% of their excess weight.
Duodenal switch is preferred because it is the most comprehensive and effective weight loss method when compared to other surgical methods. It is also referred as the most suitable method for various diseases. Like diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high triglyceride. This method will also be beneficial for patients who have a high-calorie diet and have lost their sense of satiety. Moreover, since the pyrrole valve in the stomach is preserved during this operation, indigestion does not occur after the operation.
