3D Biliopancreatic Diversion Animation Video

Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch, or BPD-DS, is a restrictive/malabsorptive surgical procedure. It is restrictive in the sense that it “restricts” how much food the stomach can hold and is “malabsorptive” in that it affects how food and calories are absorbed into the bloodstream. This combination surgery has the highest success rate for amount of weight lost.

The video uses an interactive format allowing the patient to pause or go back to review education material. Using text, narration, images, and 3D animation, the patient is educated on normal GI anatomy, obesity causes and consequences, how the surgery is performed, as well as risks and complications to consider.
