Abstract
A 250-cm common channel is created during the single-step laparoscopic conversion of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass to single anastomosis duodenal switch.
- Converting Roux-en-Y gastric bypass to single anastomosis duodenal switch is typically a complex operation.
- The new technique allows this conversion to be performed in a single stage rather than the usual two-stage approach.
- The process involves completely separating the gastrojejunostomy from the gastric remnant before performing a sleeve gastrectomy.
- Following the sleeve gastrectomy, a duodeno-ileal connection is established.
