As mentioned above, due to the efficiency of this type of surgery, your time in surgery can be greatly reduced by (on average) 50 minutes. Also, the surgery is far less complicated and therefore, apart from reducing surgery time, it also reduces the risk of complications due to the minimal relocation and attachment of the small intestine.
But the biggest benefit is that even though mini-gastric bypass surgery is more efficient and quicker, weight loss is the same, and in some cases has be found to be greater than normal gastric bypass surgery.
