The SASI Bypass procedure, or “bilateral division,” is considered one of the latest and most powerful medical breakthroughs in the field of obesity and laparoscopic surgeries, and it has achieved tremendous successes in Jordan and globally, not only in weight loss, but in eliminating type 2 diabetes.

What is the SASI process?
It is an intelligent operation that combines the two most powerful features in obesity surgery:

  1. Gastric sleeve (to reduce the size of the stomach and reduce the amount of food and the feeling of hunger).
  2. Mini-intestinal bypass (by connecting the lower part of the stomach directly to the small intestine).

How does SASI work?
Thanks to this double connection, we have two paths for food movement:

  • The first path (the natural path): About 30% of the food passes through it, which ensures the body’s absorption of natural vitamins and minerals and reduces the need to take nutritional supplements for long periods.
  • The second path (the bypass path): 70% of the food passes directly into the intestine, bypassing the first part of the small intestine, which greatly reduces the absorption of calories and sugars.

Why do we recommend the SASI procedure for diabetics?
Once the undigested food quickly reaches the end of the small intestine, very powerful intestinal hormones (such as GLP-1) are secreted that massively stimulate the pancreas to produce insulin, leading to immediate improvement and often “complete remission” from type 2 diabetes, even before the patient loses all of their weight!

Sassi features in brief:

  • Strong, effective and sustainable weight loss.
  • Reduced dependence on vitamins compared to classic bypass.
  • Very high recovery rates for diabetes, cholesterol, and high blood pressure.
