Of 150 patients in whom jejunoileal bypass was performed for the treatment of morbid obesity, the intestinal bypass was converted to a gastric bypass in nine individuals. The indications for conversion have been weight regain, inadequate weight loss or pathologic hyperoxaluria with recurrent kidney stone formation. In all of our patients, dismantling of the jejunoileostomy and the gastric procedure was done simultaneously.
