GASTRIC BYPASS IN TURKEY
Gastric bypass surgery is a weight loss surgical procedure. This procedure is performed under general anesthesia in an operating room. Before undergoing the operation, the patient must have a fasting period of about 8 hours. A day before the surgery, blood thinners are administered in adequate doses to prevent blood clotting. A urinary catheter is placed after the anesthesiologist has anesthetized the patient.
Gastric bypass surgery is performed with the laparoscopic method, known as the closed method. A laparoscope, a thin tube with a tiny video camera (30 cm in length) is inserted through several incisions (5 to 10 mm in length) made in the skin. Long rods with a structure thinner than a pen are inserted into the abdomen. With the help of these rods and staples, a gastric pouch (3 cm in width and 3 cm in length) is formed in the part of the stomach adjacent to the esophagus.
WHAT IS THE SHORT DESCRIPTION OF GASTRIC BYPASS?
Gastric bypass surgery is one of the most performed surgeries in the world. This surgery is performed to enable people to lose weight with two mechanisms. In a gastric bypass surgery, a small stomach volume is created. Further, the resulting small stomach is anastomosed to the small intestine. Food from the mouth bypasses the large stomach and passes directly into the small intestine. This procedure is called gastric bypass.
IS GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERY RIGHT FOR ME?
Gastric bypass surgery is suitable for patients with body mass index over 35, diabetic patients, and patients who mainly consume sugary foods, alcohol, high-calorie snacks, and coke.
HOW LONG WILL I STAY IN THE HOSPITAL AFTER THE GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERY?
After surgery, patients usually remain hospitalized for a period of 2 to 3 days. After consuming water and liquid foods during this time, you may be discharged if your doctor deems it appropriate.
WHAT WILL I EXPERIENCE AFTER GASTRIC BYPASS?
After surgery, you can easily feel full of small amounts of food. This fullness will turn into satiety and loss of appetite over time. Necessary vitamin and mineral supplements will be taken as instructed by surgeons and dieticians. This way you can lose weight very comfortably, without vitamin and mineral deficiencies.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
On average we expect weight loss results for gastric bypass patients to be approx. 70% of their excess weight*. Obviously some people will do better and some not as well as this.
Yes. There is invariably some discomfort following the gastric bypass operation, the main source for which is the port entry sites which are made through the abdominal wall and through which the operating instruments and camera were passed. In addition you may experience some left shoulder pain after gastric bypass, which may be an effect of the gas (carbon dioxide) used to inflate the abdomen. But overall, pain is not a marked feature and whatever discomfort does occur, usually responds well to simple painkillers.
You should not drive for 2-3 days after your operation to allow the effects of the anaesthetic and any post-operative analgesia (painkillers) to wear off. Thereafter you may find driving a little uncomfortable until the port sites have fully healed, usually around 10 days.
This depends upon what you do for a living, but if you have a sedentary occupation you can generally expect to be back at work about 2 weeks after gastric bypass, after which time the wounds should have healed and you will be feeling more comfortable. If you have a physically demanding job involving lifting etc, you may need a little longer. The bowel and stomach inside your abdomen will be healed in around 6-8 weeks, so during this period it is important that you follow the nutritional guidelines as closely as you can.
Generally there is minimal scarring with a gastric bypass. The operating ports are placed in the abdomen through 5 narrow (0.5 cm) incisions which are sutured and/or glued and will normally heal in about 10-14 days. The scars should fade gradually. Some individuals have a greater tendency to form keloid which may result in thicker and more prominent scars.
Possibly. As you eat less the amount of residue (especially fibre) in your diet falls and your bowel activity will decrease. If you do become constipated, there are plenty of effective remedies which can deal with the problem. You will be given advice about this later.
Yes. There is evidence to show that weight regain can occur following a gastric bypass, usually because patients return to old eating habits. It is important to remember that the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) is not a “cure” for your weight problems, but a powerful tool that can be very effective in helping you to manage your weight more effectively. But if you live on “junk” food and don’t bother being physically active, you can certainly put weight back following bypass surgery (following any weight loss procedure actually). So the message is “eternal vigilance”, there are no days off with weight management!
No. Every medical treatment has a failure rate and the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) is no exception. A proportion of bypass patients will fail due to a variety of reasons, including an inability to comply with the nutritional requirements, physical inactivity or a failure to attend for follow-up. They can also run into trouble if they fail to take the prescribed vitamin and mineral supplements. However, if you are really determined to get a good outcome from your bypass, most of the reasons for failure can be overcome.
