About Sleeve Gastrectomy

In this type of bariatric surgery, part of the stomach is surgically removed, while the rest is stapled together to create a narrow tube or sleeve. This procedure decreases the amount of food the patient can intake, and thus stimulates weight loss. The procedure can be performed both through open surgery or laparoscopically. It is not reversible. Read More about Sleeve Gastrectomy →
