Types of Weight Loss Surgery Performed Gastric Bypass Surgery or Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Gastric bypass surgery or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is an operation recognized by the National Institutes of Health for the treatment of severe obesity.Though Roux-en-Y gastric bypass has been performed for many years, this surgery now can be done using laparoscopy, also called minimally invasive surgery. With laparoscopy, surgery is performed through a few small incisions in the abdomen. The surgeon uses the incisions to insert a laparoscope, a small telescope connected to a tiny video camera. The camera transmits a picture to a video monitor that the surgeon uses to guide the instruments during the surgery. Please note: Although you may request laparoscopy (minimally invasive surgery), you may be a better candidate for open or traditional gastric bypass surgery.
