The Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch in Turkey, or simply “The Mixed Weight Loss Surgery,” is as the name implies, a mixed approach to weight loss that combines two procedures: the Gastric Sleeve Surgery and a modified procedure built on the small intestine step of the Gastric Bypass Surgery.
The biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch in Turkey is performed with a laparoscopic approach, i.e. the weight loss surgeon uses a tine tubular camera inserted from a minimally invasive incision to reach the stomach and its surrounding organs.
First, much like the sleeve gastrectomy, the weight loss surgeons free the stomach from the organs around it using tools inserted via the small incision they created laparoscopically. Then, they place surgical staples to seal off most of your stomach, making it significantly smaller, and removing the rest so that it is the size and shape of a banana, called a stomach sleeve.
Then, in the second surgical procedure, much like in the gastric bypass surgery, the surgeon divides the small intestine and connects the downstream part of it to the newly partitioned stomach sleeve so that it functions as a new, resized stomach that passes food directly into the part of the small intestine just before its end.
The Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch in Turkey (BPD/DS) is the most efficient way to get rid of obesity and its complications.
This essentially creates to tracts: a short one, connecting the new stomach sleeve that receives the food you eat to the latter part of the small intestine; and a long one, connecting the rest of the stomach below the stomach sleeve to the rest of the small intestine upstream of where the new tract joins it. This allows the food coming down from the short tract to meet the gastric and intestinal digestive juices flowing down from the long tract to meet at the end of the small intestine.
Essentially, mixed gastric surgery decreases the size of the stomach to make you feel full faster, like the gastric sleeve surgery, and moves most of the digestion process that happens in the stomach into the latter part of the small intestine by mixing the secretions of the bypassed portions of the stomach and the small intestine with the eaten food.
The additional benefits of bypassing almost 75% of the small intestine are the significant decrease of the absorption of calories. Moreover, biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch in Turkey affects intestinal hormones, not just gastric hormones like the gastric bypass surgery, which prominently reduces hunger and improves blood sugar control.
Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch in Turkey allows you to lose weight more reliably and faster than the other bariatric surgery options in Turkey, with the best results for improving obesity-related illnesses. It is easily the most effective for treatment of type 2 diabetes.
The most prominent disadvantage of biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch in Turkey is that with this maximum efficiency comes more risk for surgery related problems, like the shortage of vitamin and minerals; but again, this can be avoided by following the diet plan Tour for Cure Nutritionists will develop for you after the surgery.
