Laproscopic gastric bypass surgery
Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is identical to the traditional gastric bypass procedure except that instead of being performed through a larger incision it is performed through several smaller incisions each measuring about an inch or less in length. There are many issues regarding laproscopic gastric bypass surgery, but in general, the advantages to performing the gastric bypass laparoscopically are that it offers superior results from a cosmetic point of view and the recovery time span is faster. The procedure is quite unique: a laparoscope connected to a video camera is inserted into the abdominal cavity and the surgical field is visualized on high-resolution video monitors in the operating room. Elongated thin surgical instruments are inserted through the other small incisions and the surgeon performs the surgery by watching the monitor . Laproscopic gastric bypass surgery details should be discussed with your doctor.
