Hi,

Go to http://clos.net to get the scoop on it.  What it is in essence is that a small pouch about the size of a magic marker is made, then about six feet of the small intestines are bypassed.  At that point, your new pouch is attached.  That is the layman's explanation for it.

Clueless about weight loss and weight loss surgery of any kind.

 Hi

I'm Dr. Rutledge 

The MGB (Mini-Gastric Bypass) is a 2 part bypass surgery

Part 1 is a gastric pouch very much like a sleeve
Part 2 is a distal (long) bypass that uses a LOOP type connection

The Loop connection really bothers a lot of US Drs (they fear bile reflux and its complications)

We have one over 6,000 MGBs with very little bile reflux problems (it Does happen)

Surgeons around the world are now adopting the MGB and reporting very good results

(England, France, Belgium, Spain, Germany, Austria, Israel, Lebanon, Trukey, India, Australia, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, Mexico and through out South America)

Advocates of the MGB see it as shorter, safer, more powerful and maybe most important easily revised if needed.
