Core Tip
Core tip: Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) has been widely applied in the treatment of obesity patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Gastrojejunostomy is one of the most important procedures in LRYGB. However, the surgical mode has not been standardized. We have proved in this study that the modified side to side anastomosis of the lesser curvature of stomach and jejunum applied with linear cutting closer in LRYGB is a safe, feasible, and effective therapeutic option in the treatment of obesity patients with type 2 diabetes and complications, which could make gastrojejunostomy standardized easily in LRYGB.
