In the background of modern medical development, many surgical procedures have been given more security. In the old days, when conditions were more rudimentary and backward, the risks of surgery came from two main sources: improper operation by the surgeon and infection of the patient’s wound during surgery, with the latter being more common due to the lack of conditions. In contrast, nowadays, a sterile operating room coupled with a minimally invasive laparoscopic surgical approach reduces the chances of infection to a minimum. The advantage of laparoscopic surgery over open surgery is that the operation is more delicate, the trauma port is smaller, the scar left after surgery is smaller, and the bleeding is less than 30 ml, which is minimally invasive. Of course, with the current technology, to achieve a 100% zero-risk effect for the time being is still a “pipe dream”, not only weight loss surgery, including other large and small operations have certain risks. But the main point is that the threat to one’s own health is more important than the current insignificant risk rate of surgery. As an example: suppose a patient has a disease that is sufficiently fatal and the only way to treat it is to have surgery, but surgery carries a risk of a 0.2% mortality rate. In this case, do you choose to have the surgery or not? The answer is self-explanatory, although this example is used to describe weight loss surgery is a bit exaggerated, but in fact, the statistics of gastric bypass surgery in weight loss surgery as an example, the complication rate of gastric bypass surgery is 0.4%, and the mortality rate is only 0.2%, while the number of deaths due to severe obesity is more than 2.8 million per year worldwide. So, do you choose to believe that you will not be one of those 2.8 million people, or do you choose weight loss surgery to complete your weight loss and stabilize your health?
