Informations
Depending on your health conditions, BMI, blood tests and side diseases, it will be decided together with the doctor which bariatric surgery method is most suitable for the patient.
The Transit Bipartition surgery is performed under general anaesthesia. Just like the Transit Bipartition surgery it is performed in two stages. In the first stage, small incisions are made on the abdominal area and these incisions are used to reach the stomach and the intestines. The surgery is a laparoscopic surgery that means that the stomach and the organs are not exposed. Depending on the patients’ condition, the doctor may decide to turn to a traditional open surgery. The top part of the stomach is cut and the rest is stitched back with the help of the stapler device.
On the next stage, the part of the small intestine is connected directly to the stomach with two openings. With these new routes, while part of the consumed food goes straight to then of the small intestine from the stomach the other part starts at the middle of the digestive system. Also, some food passes the stomach and the beginning of the small intestine and go to the middle part of the small intestine.
The surgery generally takes 1-2 hours. After the surgery it is important to follow the diet that’s provided by the dietitian and the nutritionist. Starting with a liquid diet, the nutrition will turn to normal phase by phase. The nutritionist will give the necessary information detailed about the phases and diet programs.
You typically qualify for bariatric surgery if you have a BMI of 35 or greater, with specific significant health problems like Type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea or high blood pressure. In addition, if you think you have the following symptoms, you can consult medicalfly or our partner surgeons;
- if you are having weight problems that are affecting your life standards
