I am confused....are any of these procedures a bipartition?

[OrganicLife]

Have they renamed the bipartition to one of these procedures?

What are the differences? I just opened this forum, perhaps there are diagrams of each of these procedures and their differences. I will continue to look and learn.

I have never heard of a biparition. What is it?

I would NOT have that at all...it's like a long SKINNY pouch with a manmade stoma. The VSG and DS have the pyloric valve NOT a stoma.

Is someone offering you a bipartition??

 

[OrganicLife]

No, no one has offered me that. I have been away from WLS for a few years, and just starting to research revisions. I am reading the forums, and I never heard of these SADI/LoopDS etc..... thought maybe it was a bipartition with a new name.
