Our Gastric bypass Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Gastric bypass, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

Gastric Balloon

A gastric balloon is a non-surgical weight loss option involving inserting a balloon into the stomach to reduce food intake.

Pros: Minimally invasive with no incisions. It offers a temporary solution, allowing removal if needed. 30% weight loss within 6 months is common.
Cons: Potential for nausea and vomiting in 30% of patients. Limited to 6-month duration, requiring further intervention for long-term results.
Effectiveness: Achieves up to 15%-30% total body weight loss.
Duration: 20-30 minutes
Recovery: 1-2 days
Best for: Individuals with a BMI of 30-40. Ideal for those seeking non-surgical weight loss.
Prices: Cost of Gastric balloon in Lithuania from $1,616

Metabolic Surgery

A surgical intervention aimed at improving metabolic conditions by altering the digestive system.

Pros: Significant weight loss, up to 60% of excess weight. Can improve or resolve type 2 diabetes in 77% of patients. Often results in long-term weight maintenance without needing constant diet adjustments.
Cons: Possible nutrient deficiencies due to altered digestion. Requires lifelong dietary supplements and regular medical follow-ups.
Effectiveness: 60% excess weight loss.
Duration: 2-4 hours
Recovery: 2-4 weeks
Best for: Patients with BMI over 40, or over 35 with obesity-related health issues.

Da Vinci Gastric Bypass Surgery

A minimally invasive robotic-assisted bariatric procedure designed to reduce stomach size and reroute the small intestine.

Pros: Precision of robotic assistance minimizes surgical trauma and enhances recovery. 60% of patients maintain significant weight loss long-term. Reduced risk of complications compared to traditional methods.
Cons: Requires specialized equipment and training, which may limit availability. Longer operation time than standard laparoscopic procedures.
Effectiveness: Achieves 60-70% excess weight loss within 1 year.
Duration: 3-4 hours

Effectiveness: 60-80% excess weight loss within 1-2 years.
Duration: 2-4 hours
Recovery: 2-4 weeks
Best for: Individuals with BMI over 40, or over 35 with obesity-related health conditions.
