RNY laparoscopic bypass, or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, is a laparoscopic weight loss surgery. This means through small incisions in the abdomen. It is the most common bariatric surgery in the United States.
The surgeon creates a small pouch from the top of the stomach during the procedure. Then, it connects it directly to the small intestine. This bypasses most of the stomach. And the first part of the small intestine. This is where most of the calories and nutrients are absorbed.
