SADI-S (Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy)

The SADI-S is a bariatric procedure that combines the key benefits of Gastric Bypass and Sleeve Gastrectomy, helping patients lose 50-75% of their excess weight within one year.

How It Works

This surgery is performed in two key steps:

  1. Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG): Approximately 80% of the stomach is removed, leaving a smaller, tube-shaped stomach that restricts food intake.

  2. Duodeno-Ileal Bypass: The duodenum is directly connected to the lower part of the small intestine (ileum), allowing food to bypass a portion of the digestive tract, reducing calorie and nutrient absorption.

Key Benefits

  • Significant Weight Loss: Patients typically lose 50-75% of their excess weight within the first year.

  • Metabolic Improvements: This procedure is highly effective in improving or even resolving type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and severe lipid disorders (high cholesterol).

  • Lower Risk of Reflux and Digestive Issues: Compared to other bariatric surgeries, SADI-S has a lower risk of acid reflux, bloating, and diarrhea.

  • Enhanced Quality of Life: Many patients experience improved overall health, increased energy levels, and a better quality of life.

Who Is a Candidate?

SADI-S is recommended for patients who:
✔️ Have morbid obesity (BMI over 55).
✔️ Suffer from obesity-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or severe lipid disorders.
✔️ Need a long-term weight loss solution to reduce serious health risks.

Is SADI-S Right for You?

If you are struggling with severe obesity and related health issues, SADI-S may be the best option for achieving long-term weight loss and metabolic health. A consultation with an experienced bariatric surgeon will help determine if this procedure is right for you.
