Over the last 30 years, the number of individuals with obesity and overweight in the community has increased rapidly and continues to increase. In parallel with these developments, hospitals, clinics, and physicians specializing in this field have increased all over the country. Too many alternatives and rising surgical procedure prices also complicate people’s decision-making processes.
We tried to present information that will help individuals who aim to treat the obesity problem with weight loss surgery, for example, gastric sleeve, to decide. We also shared our alternative methods for gastric sleeve surgery outside of the UK.
When can gastric sleeve surgery be recommended as a solution?
Obese individuals may not be able to reach a healthy weight despite trying methods such as diet and physical exercise. High weight can trigger other health problems. Bariatric surgery can be recommended for obesity patients who cannot lose weight despite trying other methods, who regain weight even if they lose weight, and who are at risk of causing greater problems for the health of their high weight. Considering the patient’s current condition and medical history, the bariatric surgeon may consider the gastric sleeve method appropriate for bariatric surgery.
If the patient also accepts the gastric sleeve procedure, this surgery can be performed.
Sleeve gastrectomy is recommended for patients with a body mass index (BMI) above 35. On average, patients tend to lose 25 – 30% of their total body weight after the procedure. If the patient’s body mass index (BMI) is below35 and above 30, sleeve gastrectomy can be performed with the opinion and recommendation of a doctor to prevent other health risks caused by excess weight.
Gastric sleeve (sleeve gastrectomy) procedure
Gastric sleeve is a bariatric surgery procedure performed to reduce the volume of the stomach by laparoscopic method. It is performed under general anesthesia. Since the body is entered through very small incisions, it leaves surgical scars at an inconspicuous level.
Gastric sleeve surgery is a treatment method that allows patients with a body mass index (BMI) of 35 and above to lose their high weight safely.
Gastric sleeve surgery involves stapling the stomach along its length into a long, thin tube and removing excess stomach. After gastric sleeve surgery, the stomach volume can be reduced by up to 80% compared to before the surgery.
Unlike gastric bypass, where food enters a small pouch and then passes directly into the small intestine, the path that food takes after gastric sleeve surgery is the same as it did before surgery.
Since the stomach becomes smaller after the gastric sleeve procedure, it can hold less food and stretches more quickly, giving a feeling of fullness and satisfaction. For this reason, patients who have undergone gastric sleeve surgery want to eat less. This strongly promotes weight loss. Part of this effect is due to the fact that the operation triggers changes in intestinal hormones that give a feeling of hunger.
Sleeve gastrectomy should be performed by surgeons who are experts in the field of bariatric surgery. When the surgery is performed properly, it provides excellent weight loss.
If the patient’s obesity level is very high, vigorous diet and exercise programs may be recommended to reduce the weight to minimize the risks of surgery until this surgery. The surgery is performed when the patient is reduced to the target weight, which has less risk for gastric sleeve surgery.
Another option is to choose a two-surgery method for very overweight patients. In these two-surgical treatment plans, the patient first undergoes gastric sleeve surgery. A few months after reaching the targeted weight with gastric sleeve surgery, when the patient has lost a significant amount of weight and the risks of having more surgery are much less, the second bariatric surgery (roux-en-y gastric bypass) is performed.
