Malabsorptive Procedures: Weight loss surgeries that alter digestive process are referred to as malabsorptive procedures. There are several different types of malabsorptive weight loss surgery. Some of these techniques involve a bypass of small intestine, thereby limiting absorption of calories. Malabsorptive weight loss surgery reduces amount of intestine that comes in contact with food so that body absorbs fewer calories. •Biliopancreatic Diversion: The goal of this surgery is to restrict amount of food consumed and alter normal digestive processes. It also involves creation of a stomach pouch, but it is a larger pouch than one created in a restrictive weight loss surgery. Biliopancreatic diversion alters anatomy of small intestine to divert bile and pancreatic juices so they meet ingested food closer to middle or end of small intestine. Patients report a greater degree of satisfaction with this procedure than with restrictive weight loss surgery, because they are able to eat larger meals. And this surgery provides greatest amount of malabsorption, it also allows for greatest amount of weight loss. But as with restrictive weight loss surgery, long-term success is dependent upon patient’s ability to adhere to a dietary, supplement, exercise and behavioral regimen. Combined Procedures Gastric Bypass Roux-en-Y is a recently developed procedure that utilizes principles of both restrictive and malabsorptive weight loss surgeries. According to American Society for Bariatric Surgery and National Institutes of Health, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is most frequently performed weight loss surgery in United States. This procedure involves creation of a small stomach pouch with remainder of stomach completely stapled shut and divided from pouch. The outlet from pouch than empties directly into lower portion of jejunum, thus bypassing calorie absorption. By adding malabsorption to a restrictive weight loss procedure, food is delayed in mixing with bile and pancreatic juices that aid in absorption of nutrients. The result is an early sense of fullness, combined with a sense of satisfaction that reduces desire to eat.
