Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy - Dr Arif Ahmad
Sleeve gastrectomy is a restrictive form of bariatric surgery that shrinks the stomach to approximately 15% of its original size. It is commonly performed on severely obese patients who are not healthy enough to undergo a successful gastric bypass, biliopancreatic diversion or similar major surgery. The procedure enables rapid weight loss with fewer complications than the more conventional weight loss surgeries, but its effectiveness loses stride because there is no intestinal bypass.
