cruce duodenal que es

Duodenal switch surgery is one of the most advanced and effective bariatric techniques for treating severe obesity and its associated diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol. At the Clínica 3 de Mayo in Madrid, under the direction of Dr. Jesús Lago, we offer this procedure with a comprehensive approach, combining surgical expertise with nutritional and psychological support to ensure the best long-term results.

Our goal is not only to help you lose weight, but also to restore your health, improve your quality of life, and prevent future complications.

What is duodenal switch surgery?

Duodenal switch is a derivative and restrictive technique. This means that it combines two mechanisms:

  • Stomach reduction, to limit the amount of food ingested.
  • Small intestine diversion, which reduces the absorption of fats and calories.

This procedure achieves significant and sustained weight loss, as well as a positive metabolic impact on the regulation of insulin and other intestinal hormones. For this reason, it is one of the most effective surgical options for patients with morbid obesity.

Benefits of duodenal switch

  • Rapid weight loss and long-term maintenance.
  • High remission rate for type 2 diabetes, even in patients with years of progression.
  • Improved cholesterol and triglyceride levels, reducing cardiovascular risk.
  • Control of high blood pressure in most patients.
  • Reduction in sleep apnea and improved sleep quality.
  • Positive hormonal impact, which helps maintain results over time.
