There's going to be five procedures that
we'll talk about today:
00:00:10.845 --> 00:00:15.840
lap band, gastric sleeve, gastric bypass,
SADI-S, or the SIPS operation,
00:00:15.865 --> 00:00:18.940
and the duodenal switch.
00:00:18.965 --> 00:00:22.620
The laparoscopic adjustable gastric band
was a very popular bariatric surgery.
00:00:22.645 --> 00:00:27.420
A band device was placed in the abdomen,
placed at the top of the stomach,
00:00:27.445 --> 00:00:30.100
creating a small gastric food pouch.
00:00:30.125 --> 00:00:34.240
When the patient eats a very small meal,
it gets to that small stomach, the small
00:00:34.265 --> 00:00:37.780
stomach talks to the brain, the
patient feels full,
00:00:37.805 --> 00:00:39.900
they eat less food, and they lose weight.
00:00:39.925 --> 00:00:44.420
It's not particularly performed often as a
primary bariatric surgery these days, but
00:00:44.445 --> 00:00:48.640
we do take care of a lot of prior band
patients because they need the adjustments
00:00:48.665 --> 00:00:52.700
to the band to
get their band to work well.
00:00:52.725 --> 00:00:56.735
The gastric sleeve surgery is done
through small, tiny incisions.
00:00:56.760 --> 00:00:59.320
First step of the
operation is to take down the attachment
00:00:59.345 --> 00:01:05.260
to the colon and to the spleen,
and that will free up the stomach.
00:01:05.285 --> 00:01:10.290
A sizer is placed in the stomach,
and then a staple line is completed,
00:01:10.320 --> 00:01:13.700
transecting the lateral portion of the
stomach from
00:01:13.725 --> 00:01:15.770
the gastric sleeve that's left.
00:01:15.800 --> 00:01:18.210
What that does is two major things.
00:01:18.240 --> 00:01:22.900
A small stomach, a tiny little meal will
make you full very quickly,
00:01:22.925 --> 00:01:27.960
and the even more important part, this
is the part of the stomach that has a lot
00:01:27.985 --> 00:01:31.820
of those appetite hormones that
that drive patients to eat,
00:01:31.845 --> 00:01:35.180
eat the wrong things, can eat
them for the wrong reasons.
00:01:35.205 --> 00:01:39.080
Now that this part of the stomach is gone,
the sleeve does an excellent
00:01:39.105 --> 00:01:41.460
job with head hunger.
00:01:41.485 --> 00:01:44.850
The gastric bypass done
through small, tiny incisions, and
00:01:44.880 --> 00:01:49.290
the first step is to create a small
gastric pouch up here at the top.
00:01:49.320 --> 00:01:53.020
The second part of the operation is
this distal connection, where
00:01:53.045 --> 00:01:57.520
there's a unhooking and rehooking, and we
bring this limb of intestine, and
00:01:57.545 --> 00:01:59.780
we connect it to that gastric pouch.
00:01:59.805 --> 00:02:05.100
That does is the food is now skipping a
portion of the small intestine,
00:02:05.125 --> 00:02:09.340
which adds an element of
malabsorption to the operation.
00:02:09.365 --> 00:02:14.220
Essentially, you don't quite absorb
all the calories that you eat.
00:02:14.245 --> 00:02:19.220
The SADI-S operation basically
combines the upsides of a gastric
00:02:19.245 --> 00:02:21.400
sleeve and a gastric bypass.
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:26.450
Small little tiny incisions,
take down our connections, make
00:02:26.480 --> 00:02:33.020
our sleeve operation, so time tiny little
stomach, you feel full very quickly.
00:02:33.045 --> 00:02:37.500
It gets rid of the appetite hormones
in that portion of the stomach.
00:02:37.525 --> 00:02:42.860
Then we bring up a loop and connect
it to the first part of the duodenum.
00:02:42.885 --> 00:02:47.540
You get that really nice
malabsorption with this operation,
00:02:47.565 --> 00:02:50.960
which makes it excellent for weight loss,
and it makes it a very, very
00:02:50.985 --> 00:02:53.440
durable bariatric procedure.
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:58.220
The duodenal switch operation.
Small, tiny incisions.
00:02:58.245 --> 00:03:00.340
We start by making our sleeve.
00:03:00.365 --> 00:03:06.940
We take down the connections to the spleen
and the colon, put our sizer in,
00:03:06.965 --> 00:03:10.820
run our staple line,
make our small little gastric pouch to
00:03:10.845 --> 00:03:15.480
keep people full of very small meals, we
remove the portion of the stomach that
00:03:15.505 --> 00:03:19.840
creates all those appetite hormones that
keep people hungry and limit their weight
00:03:19.865 --> 00:03:24.320
loss, and then we bring up a wide
connection, hooking it up to
00:03:24.345 --> 00:03:26.500
the first part of the duodenum.
00:03:26.525 --> 00:03:30.280
The duodenal switch is a very
malabsorbtive operation,
00:03:30.440 --> 00:03:34.920
which makes it a very high weight loss
operation, up to 80% and
00:03:34.945 --> 00:03:36.980
90% of excess weight loss.
00:03:37.005 --> 00:03:40.240
It's an ideal operation for people
with a lot of weight to lose.
