Antrectomy is the medical term meaning surgical removal of the antrum. The antrum is the last part of the stomach. The procedure we think of as gastric bypass is an antrectomy with reconstruction.
A bypass is called a bypass because it serves to "bypass" or circumvent a particular obstacle or congestion. In medical terms, such as in a bypass surgery, it reroutes blood flow around a blocked artery. Similarly, in transportation, a bypass road allows vehicles to avoid congested areas, facilitating smoother travel. The term reflects the function of redirecting or avoiding a specific point of obstruction.
