The duodenal switch operation has been found to be a very useful operation for a variety of nonbariatric procedures. A small series of patients operated on for primary bowel reflux, duodenal diverticula, and benign duodenal obstruction have all faired well. This procedure offers a much more physiologic approach to certain duodenal problems than a gastric jejunojejunostomy.
