Live Webcast: Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass

Posted by: admin  :  Category: bariatric gastric bypass surgery

Shawnee Mission Medical Center will host its fourth live surgical Webcast on February 28 at 6:30 p.m. CST (00:30 UTC), when bariatric surgeon Stan Hoehn, MD, performs a minimally invasive Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass procedure on www.OR-Live.com.

Considered the “gold standard” of weight-loss surgery, this procedure is widely viewed as the safest and most effective means of achieving long-term weight loss. During gastric bypass surgery, a portion of the stomach is stapled into a small pouch and approximately 40 inches of the small intestine is “bypassed” so food does not absorb along that portion of the small bowel.
