• It is performed under general anesthesia and with a minimally invasive laparoscopic approach (4-5 small incisions from 3 mm to 10 mm)
  • The classic intervention consists in the creation of a small gastric pocket that does not communicate with the rest of the stomach, but is directly connected to the small intestine at a variable distance from the duodenum.
  • The intestinal tract which is thus excluded from the transit of food, called the “bilio-pancreatic tract”, is in turn joined at a variable distance from the stomach with the “alimentary tract” to form the “common tract”.
