About
Surgical bypassing of a longer section of the small bowel (when doing a gastric bypass operation) gives better results on body weight in the superobese. We do not yet know whether it is beneficial to exclude more of the proximal small bowel or more of the distal. Side effects of bypassing can also be different.
Study aims at clarifying possible differences in effects and side-effects of these two surgical-technical variations.
