Looking for an effective and long-term solution for obesity? Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda, an experienced Surgical Gastroenterologist, GI Surgeon, and Advanced Laparoscopic Surgeon in Hyderabad, performs Laparoscopic Mini Gastric Bypass (One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass – OAGB) using advanced minimally invasive techniques to help patients achieve significant weight loss while improving obesity-related health conditions.

ABOUT THE PROCEDURE

What is Mini Gastric Bypass Surgery?

Mini Gastric Bypass (MGB), also known as One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB), is a minimally invasive bariatric surgery that combines stomach restriction and intestinal bypass to promote substantial and sustained weight loss. During the procedure, a long, narrow stomach pouch is created and connected directly to a section of the small intestine using a single surgical connection (anastomosis). This reduces food intake and limits calorie absorption, helping patients lose weight effectively while improving obesity-related diseases. Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda performs laparoscopic mini gastric bypass with advanced surgical expertise, personalized care, and long-term follow-up for optimal outcomes.

HOW IS THE PROCEDURE PERFORMED?

How is Mini Gastric Bypass Surgery Performed?

Mini gastric bypass is performed laparoscopically under general anesthesia by creating a smaller stomach pouch and connecting it directly to the small intestine.

Preoperative Assessment

Before surgery, Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda performs a comprehensive evaluation including BMI assessment, blood investigations, nutritional assessment, upper GI endoscopy when indicated, cardiac and pulmonary evaluation, psychological assessment, and anesthetic fitness. Patients also receive dietary counseling and education regarding long-term lifestyle changes.

General Anesthesia

The procedure is performed under general anesthesia, ensuring complete comfort and safety throughout the surgery.

Surgical Procedure

Several small incisions are made in the abdomen to introduce a laparoscope and specialized surgical instruments. A long, narrow stomach pouch is created, and a loop of the small intestine is connected to the pouch using a single anastomosis. This limits food intake while reducing calorie absorption, resulting in effective and sustained weight loss.

Leak Testing and Safety Checks

Before completing the surgery, the newly created connection is carefully checked for bleeding and leakage to ensure a safe and secure outcome. All surgical instruments are removed, and the small incisions are closed.

Postoperative Care

After surgery, patients are closely monitored for pain control, hydration, early mobilization, and nutritional needs. A structured dietary program is introduced gradually, progressing from liquids to soft foods and eventually a balanced healthy diet. Lifelong nutritional supplementation and regular follow-up are important components of successful treatment.

RECOVERY

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the difference between mini gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy?

How much weight can I lose after mini gastric bypass?

Most patients lose 60–80% of their excess body weight within 12 to 18 months, depending on their commitment to diet, exercise, and regular follow-up.

Will I need lifelong vitamin supplements?
