SADI-S is an advanced type of bariatric surgery. It combines a sleeve gastrectomy with a duodenal-ileal bypass. Typically, it is done on individuals with severe obesity. It aids in weight loss and improve obesity-related health conditions.
In the first part of the procedure, a sleeve gastrectomy is performed. Here a large part of the stomach is removed. This leaves a smaller, tube-like stomach. The small intestine is rerouted bypassing a large portion of it. Thus there is a smaller food intake due to the reduced stomach size. This cuts down on calorie absorption in the bypassed part of the intestine.
