Hey all!

Im new here and really enjoing this forum! I had surgery April 26, 2022 and so far so good

But I had the SASI surgery and cant seem to find many posts on it! I know its relativly new but was hoping there was a topic on that one as well as sleeve and bypass

But if you who read this have had the SASI i would love to hear your experience as im only 4 days post op

never heard of it before. Googling it it appears to be a standard sleeve but it appears they connect the stomach to a part of the small intestine. Is this what you got?

Wow, fast answer!

Yes, its kindof a mix of bypass and sleeve! I know it has been done here in Norway since 2015 but not sure about the rest of the world [emoji28]

interesting. Never once heard about it in my research. its also not a option here at my area where i got surgery. Wonder what the difference is in benefits with a regular sleeve and bypass

As far as i found out when I did research it makes people more likely to keep the weight down compared to sleeve. And food also has 2 options to travel so its less trouble with Vitamin loss. Its also possible to do a full gastroscopy as you have acces to all intestines! And no dumping [emoji846]

Hi Chiru,

I also had a combination of the sleeve and bypass on April 26th as well! I’m not exactly sure the name for it other than it’s a form of gastric bypass.
I had mine done in Mexico so these kinds of procedures are apparently more common abroad then in the U.S
