About this Procedure
Sleeve gastrectomy is weight loss (bariatric) surgery in which a large part of the stomach is removed. The NHS explains that around 80% of the stomach is removed, leaving a much smaller, sleeve-shaped stomach. Because the stomach holds much less food, you feel full sooner and eat less.
Weight loss surgery may be considered for people with a high body mass index (BMI) who have not been able to lose enough weight through diet and exercise, especially if they have conditions that might improve with weight loss, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnoea or asthma. The NHS notes that people of South Asian, Middle Eastern, Black African and some other backgrounds may be considered at a lower BMI. It is not a quick fix and requires lasting changes to diet and activity.
Sleeve gastrectomy is done by keyhole surgery under general anaesthetic, usually through about 5 small cuts in the tummy. MedlinePlus says you can usually go home about 2 days after surgery, moving from clear liquids to a puréed diet by discharge. The NHS says you can start to return to normal activities after 4 to 6 weeks, and regular follow-up with blood tests to check vitamin and mineral levels is needed for life.
