what is the mini gastric bypas??

I have been hearing about the mini GP, what is it???? Flavia open RNY 07/27/04

Flavia, I went to their website a long time ago and cant recall the differences. You might want to do a search online. I believe there is only one place that does this type of surgery (at least that seemed to be the case a long time ago). Sorry I'm not much help Amy

I don't remember the exact differences, but I do remember from the books I read that the Mini by-pass was considered "old school" and no longer used very much. Just do your research and then make your decision. Tallahassee Lassie

Thx Vickie, I already had open RNY, I was wondering because a friend of mine has been talking about it... I'll let her know!! Flavia
