Bariatric surgery, derived from the Greek word "baros" meaning
weight, is designed to reduce obesity indirectly by restricting the
amount of food calories a person can digest.
Some bariatric operations (eg. lap band) achieve this by reducing
the size of the stomach size. Other operations (eg. roux-en-Y
gastric bypass) go one step further. As well as reducing stomach
volume, they also reduce the length of the small intestine.
This constitutes a more permanent alteration of the digestive
tract and makes it more difficult for the patient to cheat.
