Gastric bypass is a surgical procedure that involves creating a small pouch at the top of the stomach and rerouting the small intestine to connect to this pouch, bypassing a large portion of the stomach and duodenum. This results in reduced food intake and malabsorption of nutrients, leading to significant weight loss.
