AFTER A GASTRIC SLEEVE?
What Is SADI-S?

Duodenal switch procedures start with a sleeve gastrectomy, the removal of 80% of the stomach. The surgeon then reroutes the intestines to shorten the path your food takes.
SADI-S is a similar procedure. It starts with a sleeve gastrectomy, then the new stomach sleeve is sewn to a loop of the small intestine to bypass most of the bowel.
The main difference between the biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch and SADI-S procedures is the single anastomosis (reconnection within the gastrointestinal tract). While duodenal switch requires two, SADI-S requires just one.

How SADI-S Aids in Weight Loss
Sleeve gastrectomy is a restrictive weight loss procedure, meaning it reduces the amount of food your stomach can hold. It helps you feel fuller faster, and with less food. It also removes the part of the stomach that produces most of your ghrelin, the hunger hormone, lowering your appetite.
The gastric bypass portion of the surgical procedure reroutes the intestines to result in a malabsorptive effect, so your body absorbs fewer calories.
This combination leads to consistent, healthy, and sustainable weight loss.
