Abstract
The first gastric bypass surgery was performed by Mason and Ito in 1966. They divided stomach horizontally and created a loop gastroenterostomy between proximal gastric pouch and jejunum. However, the proximal gastric pouch in this procedure was high up in the abdomen, close to the gastroesophageal junction. This caused bile reflux and led to esophagitis. In addition, the high location of anastomosis also led to technical difficulties. Also, the transverse pouch led to dilation of fundus and failure of effective weight loss.
