BarkerBariatrics got a reaction from Alex Brecher in Duodenal Switch Animation by Dr. Wade Barker
From http://www.barkerbariatriccenter.com - The restrictive part of the duodenal switch procedure is achieved via partial gastrectomy (removal of part of the stomach), which reduces the size of the stomach. The distal or pouch-like portion of the stomach is removed. Some scientists think this helps reduce chemicals produced by the stomach that trigger hunger and eating.
