Summary

This study compares two types of gastric bypass surgery for severe obesity. One method uses fixed lengths for the rerouted intestine, while the other customizes the lengths based on each person's small bowel size. The goal is to see if the customized approach leads to greater weight loss and better control of related conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure. About 262 adults with a BMI between 40 and 60 will take part.
