The scientific name of “gastrectomy” bariatric surgery is laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, also known as gastric reduction surgery, the principle of which is to reduce the volume of the stomach, reduce food intake from the root, reduce gastric absorption to inhibit the growth of abdominal fat and body obesity growth; thus reducing about 70% of the excess body weight for patients. Bariatric surgery refers to a series of similar surgical procedures for the treatment of obesity, the main procedures are laparoscopic gastric reduction, laparoscopic gastric bypass, etc., which are also minimally invasive procedures; laparoscopic gastric reduction surgery, also known as sleeve gastrectomy, the principle of gastric reduction surgery is to use the laparoscope to cut out the large curve of the stomach vertically, so that the stomach forms a small gastric sac of about 150cc, which can hold about 4-5 ounces of of food. The benefit is that it does not require the placement of foreign objects in the body and the procedure is highly effective for weight loss. Because 80% of the volume of the stomach is cut off, the appetite is reduced, as is the production of the hormone Ghrelin, which stimulates the appetite. Within two years after surgery, you can lose about 10-15 BMI or 70% of your excess weight. For those who have a high BMI and have difficulty reducing their appetite, gastric reduction surgery can achieve the desired weight loss. How Gastric Reduction Surgery Works Gastric reduction surgery works by using a laparoscope to cut out the large curvature of the stomach vertically, creating a small stomach sac of about 150cc, which can hold about 4-5 ounces of food. Because the surgery will cut out 80% of the stomach volume, in addition to reducing the amount of food eaten, it will also reduce the amount of hormone secretion that stimulates appetite, and therefore appetite will also be reduced. After more than 1000 cases of weight reduction surgery, the follow-up data of 6 months after the surgery showed that the patients’ weight, waist circumference, and body mass index kept decreasing since the surgery, and compared with the preoperative period, they can generally lose about 20 pounds in one month after the surgery, and about 60 pounds on average in 3 months, and also improve or treat obesity complications, such as type 2 diabetes , hypertension, hyperlipidemia, joint degeneration, and sleep whistling pause syndrome. Laparoscopic sleeve gastric minimally invasive surgery for weight loss: 1, laparoscopic sleeve gastric minimally invasive surgery can effectively reduce 65%-80% of the overweight part of the body. 2, One week after surgery, hypertension and hyperglycemia are relieved, and various obesity complications such as coronary heart disease and tumor are significantly improved. 3.The damage to the organs and the interference with the function of the organs are reduced, so that the recovery time after the operation is greatly shortened. 4.Using consumables imported from Johnson & Johnson in the United States, the laparoscopic CNC intelligent anastomosis is infection-free and without complications. 5.Only 0.5cm to 1cm incision in the abdomen after minimally invasive surgery. Some data show that if overweight and obese patients can lose 5% to 10% of their body weight, many related diseases and risk factors will be reduced and improved. In type 2 diabetic patients with significant obesity, the patient’s blood glucose, blood insulin, and glycosylated hemoglobin are converted to normal levels after surgery. The effectiveness and durability of laparoscopic sleeve gastric minimally invasive surgery for obesity and complications can greatly reduce the financial burden on patients and reduce the medical costs of many long-term diseases.
