Transected silastic vertical gastric bypass (Fobi pouch Bypass) is a modified open gastric bypass that was introduced by Dr. Mathias Fobi in 1990s. Although long-term weight maintenance is excellent, it was not widely adopted by Bariatric Surgeons in the Minimally invasive era. This video illustrates a laparoscopic approach to a particularly complicated marginal ulcer that was eroding into the liver and pancreas.
