The biliopancreatic limb, also known as the afferent limb, consists of the duodenum and proximal jejunum that remains in continuity with the remnant stomach proximally. The limb contains digestive enzymes from the stomach, hepatobiliary tract, and pancreas.

Le principe est simple : puisque des fils électriques passent un peu partout dans la maison ou dans les bureaux, pourquoi ne pas s'en servir pour transporter autre chose que de l'énergie électrique? La technologie à courant porteur est déjà mise à profit pour transmettre des informations pour la gestion du réseau électrique ou, dans certains pays, comme support téléphonique. Évolution logique, elle permet désormais d'utiliser le réseau électrique pour le transformer en réseau informatique.
