Roux-en-y gastric bypass is a restrictive-malabsorptive operation performed for weight loss in individuals with a BMI of 40 or greater, or in those BMI of 35 or greater with obesity-related comorbidities. Gastric bypass can be performed via open, laparoscopic, or robotic techniques. The general steps of Roux-en-Y-gastric bypass (RYGB) include 1) gastric pouch creation, 2) creation of biliopancreatic limb, 3) jejunojejunostomy creation, and 4) creation of gastrojejunostomy. This activity reviews the indications and details of this procedure as well as the role of the interprofessional team.
