Could someone please define 1.) Afferent limb 2.) Efferent limb 3.) Roux limb for me when it comes to gastric bypass?
It appears that the afferent limb is the same as the roux limb (= proximal to the gastrojejunal anastomosis) and the efferent limb is distal. Is this correct?
Does anyone know any references or websites (with simple pictures for my feeble mind) on this definition?
