“…So far, several surgical techniques have evolved to find the best procedure in terms of weight loss and metabolic control that is associated with the fewest side-effects and complications. However, to tell the truth, all defined bariatric and metabolic surgical techniques are historical and go back to Billroth I or Billroth II gastrointestinal anastomosis (6,8,15,16).…”

Objective: Obesity is a global health epidemic with considerable co-morbidities. The increasing demand for bariatric surgery has led to the emergence of new techniques. We modified previously described Mini Gastric By-pass(MGB) technique via leaving a bridge at the most cranial 2 cm of the fundus of the human stomach to the follow-up and treatment of the remnant stomach and duodenum. We would like to entitle this new technique as Bridged MGB and aimed to apply on rabbits as an experimental study. Material and Methods: The study was performed in the experimental animal laboratory of university after ethical approval was taken from the local ethics committee. Described new technique was applied to 2.1 and 3.2 kg 2 New Zealand rabbits. Results: As a result of the operations, one of the rabbits died on the day of the operation; the other rabbit was exitus postoperatively on the third day. In autopsies, although no problem was detected at the anastomoses, necrosis was detected in the large curvature of both rabbits. Conclusion: Rabbit, one of the popular experimental animals, has been shown to be different from the human gastrointestinal system in both arterial and topographic aspects and it has been emphasized that it varies according to the species and even the diet and the climate. We believe that our study failed as a result of these differences and that animals more similar to humans should be used in gastrointestinal experimental studies.

“…Bariatric surgery is a dynamic surgical field and changes have continued in recent years. 1,7 Several GI operations, including partial gastrectomies and bariatric procedures, promote dramatic, durable improvement of type II DM. 4 The most commonly used bariatric and metabolic surgical techniques are adjustable gastric banding, sleeve gastrectomy (SG), and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.…”

“…All current metabolic procedures, such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, duodenal switch/biliopancreatic diversion, single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass (SADI), transit bipartition/its modification, and ileal interposition, are based on either the foregut or the hindgut theory or the combination of both. 1,[3][4][5][6][7] Rutledge first described mini gastric bypass (MGB) to treat obesity and related type II DM. 5 We modified the previously described technique by leaving a bridge (such as artificial gastro-gastric fistula [GGF]) at the most cranial 2 cm of fundus.…”

In this article, we aimed to report the first five cases of laparoscopic bridged mini gastric bypass (BMGB) in the treatment of obesity and type II diabetes mellitus (DM). Presentation of Cases: We have performed five cases with a new modified surgical method that we call a BMGB. The patients' recoveries were uneventful. The weight losses of the patients were 15, 13, 14, 11, and 13 kg subsequently and with complete normalization of all metabolic parameters at first month of follow-up. Discussion: The BMGB was modified from the mini gastric bypass and resulted with the same nutritional results, less surgical complications, and a possible advantage of remaining access to the remnant stomach. Conclusion: BMGB may be as effective and possibly an even easier operation to treat obesity and uncontrolled type II DM with possible advantages over currently available metabolic procedures.

“…Today, it is spreading rapidly due to factors such as easy access to ready-to-eat food, the prevalence of sedentary lifestyle, and increasing welfare level. 1 , 2 In 2014, the World Health Organization reported that approximately 40% of the adult population were overweight and 13% were obese. 3 , 4 The other reason why obesity is such a significant health problem is that it harbors many diseases.…”

Obesity and obesity-related diseases may emerge as a major public health issue in the near future. There are several effective methods to prevent obesity, such as diet, sports, and pharmacotherapy. However, these methods provide temporary weight loss. Bariatric surgery, which has become widespread in recent years, stands out as a method for providing permanent weight loss in obesity treatment. Bariatric surgery not only restricts the volume of the stomach and limits calorie intake but also provides weight-controlled weight loss in the long term. It is considered the most effective treatment method for addressing diseases such as hypertension and diabetes accompanying obesity. Due to its success in preventing obesity, it is a frequently preferred surgical method today. In the postoperative period of this method, potential complications following other surgical interventions that are specific to this method can be observed. Early postoperative complications include bleeding, atelectasis, venous thromboembolism, anastomotic leakage, and rhabdomyolysis. On the other side, late postoperative complications include dumping syndrome, marginal ulcers, and nutritional and vitamin deficiencies. Prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment of these complications are essential for the success of bariatric surgery to prevent morbidity and mortality. This review discusses complications commonly encountered in the postoperative period, nutritional problems, and the importance of patient follow-up in individuals undergoing bariatric surgery.
