Surgical bypass tubes are commonly referred to as "shunts." They are used to redirect bodily fluids or blood from one area to another, often employed in procedures involving vascular or gastrointestinal systems. In specific contexts, they may have more specialized names, such as "hemodialysis catheters" or "gastrostomy tubes," depending on their purpose and location in the body.
