Hello Everyone,
I recently had revision surgery from RNY to DS in the UK (28th November 2015).
Thank you for all your support and best wishes on the revision forum.
According to my surgeon, my cc is 100cms which I am happy with, it seems to be the most common, common channel length. I have just discovered that my alimentary limb is 300cms long which I was rather surprised at. Mr Kerrigan, my hugely respected and experienced surgeon tells me that this 300cm length minimises future protein deficiencies etc and makes very little difference to the amount of weight loss or maintenance.
I think the lengths were pre-determined rather than measured ala Hess.
Any observations would be most welcome.
Thank you in advance,
Regards
Les
