Summary

This study compares two ways of reconnecting the intestine during a type of weight-loss surgery called SADI-S. About 82 adults aged 18-70 having this surgery will be randomly assigned to either a hand-sewn or stapled connection. The goal is to see which method leads to fewer early complications like leaks, bleeding, or narrowing at the connection site.
