Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) is a well-established bariatric surgery that helps achieve significant and sustained weight loss while improving obesity-related health conditions.

During the procedure, the surgeon creates a small pouch from the upper part of the stomach and connects it directly to a section of the small intestine. This reduces the amount of food the patient can eat at one time and alters nutrient flow through the digestive system.

RYGB is performed using minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques in suitable patients, with a focus on patient safety, effective weight management, and long-term metabolic health.
