Gloassary term:

Roux-en-Y Gastric bypass

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is a bariatric surgery that creates a small gastric pouch connected directly to the jejunum, bypassing most of the stomach and duodenum to induce weight loss by restricting intake and reducing nutrient absorption. It is crucial for managing morbid obesity and related comorbidities. A key complication is dumping syndrome, causing rapid gastric emptying symptoms.
