At SurgicalSol, the Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass (SADI) is performed by Dr. Asif Iqbal as a state-of-the-art metabolic and weight loss surgery, ideal for patients with severe obesity or those who have had less than optimal results from previous procedures. This advanced technique is a simplification of the traditional duodenal switch. It begins with a sleeve gastrectomy, after which the first part of the small intestine (duodenum) is connected directly to the last part of the small intestine (ileum), creating a single connection point (anastomosis). This allows food to bypass a significant portion of the small intestine.
SADI works through two powerful mechanisms: the sleeve portion restricts food intake and suppresses hunger hormones, while the intestinal bypass dramatically reduces the absorption of calories and nutrients. Performed laparoscopically, this procedure offers the profound metabolic benefits of a duodenal switch with a technically simpler process, potentially reducing operative time.
This dual-action approach makes SADI one of the most effective procedures available for achieving maximum weight loss and providing exceptional resolution of type 2 diabetes and other metabolic diseases. At SurgicalSol, Dr. Asif Iqbal leverages his advanced surgical expertise to perform SADI, offering patients a powerful tool for reclaiming their health with meticulous attention to safety and long-term nutritional management.
