A Trial of the Jejunal Diversion Procedure

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This is a single site trial to assess metabolic effects in subjects after a Jejunal Diversion procedure was performed.

Detailed Description
-----------------
The Jejunal Diversion procedure is an adaptation of a jejuno-jejunostomy, which is a surgical procedure often used to address a mix of pathological conditions. The safety of the Jejunal Diversion procedure is not in question, but rather understanding the gastrointestinal signalling effects. Up to 25 eligible subjects will be enrolled into the trial. Enrollment will stop once 15 subjects have undergone the Jejunal Diversion procedure

Official Title

A Trial of the Jejunal Diversion Procedure (Side-to-side Jejuno-jejunostomy) (Europe)

Conditions

| Participant Group/Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
| --- | --- |
| Experimental: Jejunal Diversion<br>all subjects who receive jejunal diversion surgery | Procedure: Jejunal Diversion<br>* The jejuno-jejunostomy surgical procedure is a well-known general surgical operation performed for multiple acute and chronic conditions including Crohn's disease, ovarian cancer, and small bowel obstruction. The jejunal diversion procedure is an adaptation of a jejuno-jejunostomy. The proximal end of the anastomosis is approximately 100 cm distal from the ligament of Treitz. The distal end of the anastomosis is approximately 250 cm proximal from the ileocecal junction.<br>|
