Abstract

See full text

A method for intraluminally performing a gastric bypass surgery is provided. Two anastomosis members are inserted transorally and located in a proximal position and a distal position within the digestive system. The stomach and the small intestine are transected to create a gastric pouch, a drainage loop, and a Roux limb. The distal anastomosis member joins the drainage loop to a distal portion of the intestine, and the proximal anastomosis member joins the Roux limb to the gastric pouch.
