Can I please ask what type of complications would cause the surgeon to change you from rny to a sleeve?

Thanks

8 years ago a got two surgeries and when they look inside they found a lot of scar tissues....they took 2h to took some away to have the room to do something...but after that they didn't had the time for the rny....

adhesions is what caused me as well to not get the rny  they tried  but after 3 hours of trying he  made a medical  choice and done a sleeve    which im grateful for  because he could of done nothing to be honest   but i at least have a sleeve in order to have a rny it would have to be a open surgery and well    that wouldnt be for years down the road now
