<strong>Laparoscopic</strong> <strong>Sleeve</strong> <strong>Gastrectomy</strong> <strong>–</strong> <strong>The</strong> <strong>Newest</strong> <strong>Yet</strong><br />
<strong>Popular</strong> <strong>Weight</strong> <strong>Loss</strong> <strong>Surgery</strong>
Due to the increasing rate of obesity people are investigating more about the effective<br />
surgical weight loss options. And medical science today has advanced a lot and hence a<br />
variety of surgical procedures are available that help in reducing weight effectively.
<strong>Laparoscopic</strong> <strong>Sleeve</strong> <strong>Gastrectomy</strong> is newest but the most popular among all these<br />
surgeries. This surgery is an effective weight loss surgery in which approximately 85%<br />
of stomach is being removed through five or six small incisions. A narrow gastric tube or<br />
sleeve is left back. During this surgery no intestines are being removed or bypassed. One<br />
of the most important advantages of this operation is that it takes comparatively lesser<br />
time, i.e. one or two hours, which is beneficial for patients suffering from prolonged<br />
heart or lung disease. Also lower complications and faster recovery times make this<br />
surgery popular among patients as well as the surgeons.
By undergoing <strong>Laparoscopic</strong> <strong>Sleeve</strong> <strong>Gastrectomy</strong> the stomach size reduces and hence limits<br />
the amount of food intake. Although it restricts the food intake but does not affect the<br />
nutrient absorption. And due to this the patient after the surgery feels full with smaller<br />
amount of food intake. This surgery helps in reducing appetite and also reduces the amount<br />
of Ghrelin, the hunger hormone secretion which is secreted by the stomach. And hence<br />
helps in reducing weight effectively. About 60 to 70 percent of weight loss in the first two<br />
years after this surgery.
So if you are also suffering from this chronic disease, i.e. obesity and want to fight back<br />
and attain a healthy body, then consult with the knowledgeable Bariatric surgeon Dr. Daniel<br />
