What is mini gastric bypass surgery?

It consists of making a small stomach to make the patient satisfied by eating a smaller amount of food. And use the intestine as a traditional bypass but with a single union or anastomosis.
It is a surgery indicated in patients with morbid obesity and even super obesity in whom a traditional Y bypass would be more complex to perform and require longer surgical time.
