malabsorption

In other diseases where malabsorption is present, the result is bulky, fatty  loose stools.   Does anyone know why that does not happen in post ops who malabsorb?

I would guess that the difference is that we have a very specific portion of our intestine that is bypassed but the rest of it remains intact and fully functioning (as opposed to something that affects the intestinal system more generally).

That makes sense to me.
