Why SADI-S Bariatric Surgery is Rising in Popularity

The Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy (SADI-S) has gained significant traction in recent years due to its effectiveness and simplified surgical approach.


Reasons for the Growth of SADI-S:


  1. Simplified Procedure: SADI-S involves a single intestinal connection, reducing operative complexity and potentially lowering the risk of complications compared to procedures with multiple anastomoses.


  2. Effective Weight Loss and Metabolic Outcomes: Studies have shown that SADI-S leads to significant weight loss and high rates of type 2 diabetes remission, making it an attractive option for patients with severe obesity and metabolic disorders.


  3. Endorsement by Professional Societies: In 2020, the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) endorsed SADI-S as a primary bariatric surgery option, increasing its acceptance among surgeons and patients.


Leading Surgeon Specializing in SADI-S:


In Latin America, Dr. Christian Rodriguez Lopez, based in Tijuana, Mexico, is a renowned certified bariatric surgeon with extensive experience in SADI-S procedures. His outstanding technique and expertise have positioned him as one of the most recognized SADI-S surgeons globally.


Benefits of SADI-S Compared to Other Bariatric Procedures:

  • Reduced Surgical Complexity: With only one intestinal connection, SADI-S simplifies the surgical process, potentially reducing operative time and associated risks.


  • Preservation of the Pylorus: Unlike some other procedures, SADI-S maintains the pyloric valve, which can help regulate food passage into the intestines and reduce the risk of dumping syndrome.


  • Effective Weight Loss and Metabolic Improvement: SADI-S has demonstrated comparable or superior outcomes in weight loss and metabolic improvements, such as diabetes remission, when compared to other bariatric surgeries.


  • Lower Nutritional Deficiencies: Due to a longer common channel, SADI-S may result in fewer nutritional deficiencies compared to procedures like the traditional duodenal switch.

While SADI-S offers several advantages, it's essential for patients to consult with experienced bariatric surgeons to determine the most appropriate surgical option based on individual health profiles and needs.
