The Most Powerful Bariatric Option

SADI (Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy) combines two proven techniques: a sleeve gastrectomy and an intestinal bypass. The procedure creates a sleeve stomach and connects the duodenum directly to the ileum, bypassing a long section of the small intestine to dramatically reduce calorie absorption.

SADI is typically recommended for patients with BMI >50, severe metabolic disease, or those who have had insufficient weight loss after a previous bariatric procedure.

1

Sleeve creation - 80% of the stomach is removed to create a narrow sleeve.

2

Duodenal division - The duodenum is divided just beyond the stomach.

3

Ileal connection - A single connection (anastomosis) links the duodenum to the ileum, bypassing ~300cm of small bowel.

4

Recovery - 3-5 days in hospital. Lifelong vitamin supplementation is required.

Long-Term Requirements

SADI patients must commit to lifelong nutritional monitoring and supplementation.
