In the evolving field of bariatric surgery, SADI Bypass (Single Anastomosis Duodeno–Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy) is gaining global recognition for its effectiveness in weight loss and metabolic control. ALSA Pakistan stands at the forefront of providing this advanced surgical procedure with a team of expert surgeons, modern facilities, and patient-centered care. Whether you are exploring weight loss solutions or seeking treatment for obesity-related conditions, understanding what SADI Bypass surgery offers can help you make an informed decision.
What is SADI Bypass Surgery?
SADI Bypass surgery is a modified version of the Duodenal Switch procedure, combining a sleeve gastrectomy with a single intestinal bypass. This two-part operation helps patients achieve significant weight loss while reducing the risks and complexities often associated with traditional bariatric surgeries.
Components of the Surgery:
Sleeve Gastrectomy – This part of the surgery involves removing a portion of the stomach, reducing its size by approximately 70-80%. The remaining stomach is shaped like a sleeve or tube, restricting food intake and decreasing hunger by reducing the hormone ghrelin.
Intestinal Bypass – A loop of the small intestine is then connected to the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine) in a single anastomosis. This rerouting allows food to bypass a significant portion of the small intestine, reducing calorie and nutrient absorption.

Benefits of SADI Bariatric Surgery
SADI Bypass surgery is increasingly preferred for its balance of weight loss efficacy and safety. Some key benefits include:
Significant and Sustained Weight Loss
Most patients lose 70-80% of their excess body weight within 12-18 months of surgery.Improved Metabolic Health
The surgery is highly effective in reversing Type 2 diabetes, improving cholesterol levels, and controlling high blood pressure.Reduced Risk of Dumping Syndrome
Unlike gastric bypass, SADI patients often experience fewer digestive complications such as dumping syndrome.Preservation of Nutritional Absorption
Because it bypasses less of the intestine than the traditional duodenal switch, the risk of severe nutrient deficiency is significantly reduced.
Ideal Candidates for SADI Bypass
SADI Bypass is particularly beneficial for:
Individuals with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 40 or more
Patients suffering from obesity-related diseases such as diabetes, sleep apnea, or hypertension
People who did not achieve desired weight loss with other bariatric procedures
Patients looking for a second-stage surgery after sleeve gastrectomy
A thorough medical assessment at ALSA Pakistan ensures that patients are suitable candidates before proceeding.
Recovery and Post-Op Care
After SADI Bypass surgery, patients typically stay in the hospital for 2-3 days. ALSA’s medical team provides a customized recovery plan including:
Nutritional guidance to ensure adequate vitamin and mineral intake
Regular follow-up appointments for tracking weight loss and overall health
Lifestyle coaching to promote sustainable habits and physical activity

As with all surgeries, SADI Bypass carries some risks such as:
Leaks at surgical connections
Nutritional deficiencies (though less severe than traditional bypass)
Bowel irregularities
Need for lifelong supplements and monitoring
However, with ALSA Pakistan’s meticulous pre-operative preparation and state-of-the-art surgical approach, the risks are significantly minimized.
