Welcome to Dr. Huacuz Official Duodenal Switch Website

The Duodenal Switch procedure, also known as the Bilio-Pancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch procedure or the Vertical Gastrectomy with the Duodenal Switch. This procedure generates weight loss by restricting the amount of food that can be eaten with the removal of stomach or vertical gastrectomy (the greater curvature so that the volume is approximately one third its original) and by limiting the amount of food, specifically fat, that is absorbed into the body Duodenal Switch. This has a significant component of malabsorption, which seems to augment and help maintain long-term weight loss.

The malabsorptive portion of the surgery reroutes a large portion of the small intestine, creating two separate pathways and one common pathway. The shorter of the two pathways, the digestive loop, takes food from the stomach to the large intestine.
