Abstract
The Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is the second most common bariatric procedure in the USA. Although the RYGB is an effective procedure, some patients will not achieve optimal weight loss or will experience significant weight regain. In this video report, we present a step-by-step surgical technique of RYGB limb distalization in a 49-year-old female patient for inadequate weight loss.
