Sleeve Gastrectomy

Sleeve gastrectomy is a surgical procedure that removes a large portion of the stomach, leaving a banana-shaped sleeve. This reduces the amount of food that the stomach can hold, which helps to promote weight loss.

Sleeve gastrectomy is typically suitable for individuals who are obese and have failed to lose weight through diet and exercise. It is also a good option for individuals with certain medical conditions, such as diabetes and sleep apnea, that are related to obesity.

Risk Level

Sleeve gastrectomy is a major surgery with moderate risks. Potential complications include infection, bleeding, hernia, and nutritional deficiencies. It is important to discuss the risks and benefits of sleeve gastrectomy with your surgeon before making a decision.

Treatment Basis

Sleeve gastrectomy is usually performed as an inpatient procedure, meaning you will need to stay in the hospital for several days after surgery.

Preparation and Recovery

Before sleeve gastrectomy, your surgeon will give you specific instructions on how to prepare for surgery. This may include losing weight, quitting smoking, and stopping certain medications.

After sleeve gastrectomy, you will need to follow a strict diet and take nutritional supplements to ensure that you are getting all the nutrients you need. You will also need to be monitored closely by your doctor to check for any complications.
