Gastric Sleeve Explained
- The bariatric procedure involves removing a large part of the stomach (almost 75% of it).[1]JAMA Network
Sleeve Gastrectomy
“In sleeve gastrectomy, part of the stomach is removed, reducing its capacity by approximately two-thirds..”
View in Article - The reduced stomach is just the size of a banana and even resembles it.
- Because of the smaller stomach size, you feel full after eating only small quantities of food. This aids in weight loss.
- Gastric sleeve is alternatively known as sleeve gastrectomy, vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG), gastric reduction, and greater curvature gastrectomy.
- Your surgeon employs a laparoscope through a small incision, avoiding large cuts. Just 2-5 tiny incisions are needed for the procedure, ensuring a precise and minimally invasive approach.[2]Medline Plus
