Sleeve Gastrectomy in Turkey: Laparoscopic Gastric SleeveÂ
The Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy in Turkey, often shortened to Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy, Stomach Sleeve, or Gastric Sleeve, or simply Sleeve Surgery is performed by Tour for Cure Weight Loss Surgeons to remove about 80% of your stomach, leaving only a banana-shaped, banana-sized section sealed off with staples.Â
The Sleeve Gastrectomy Surgery Procedure
The Sleeve Gastrectomy in Turkey is performed with a laparoscopic approach, i.e. the weight loss surgeon uses a tine tubular camera inserted from a minimally invasive incision to reach the stomach and its surrounding organs.Â
First, the weight loss surgeons free the stomach from the organs around it using tools inserted via the small incision they created. Then, they place surgical staples to seal off 80% of your stomach, making it significantly smaller, and removing the rest so that it is the size and shape of a banana (stomach sleeve).
The Sleeve Gastrectomy Surgery in Turkey is one of the most common ways to reduce obesity and decrease the risks of its complications.
How does Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy in Turkey work?
Essentially, bariatric gastric sleeve surgery permanently decreases the size of the stomach to allow you to eat less and makes you feel full sooner. Aside from decreasing the capacity of your stomach for holding food and liquids with the much smaller stomach sleeve created by the weight loss surgeons, gastric sleeve weight loss surgery also removes a significant portion of your stomach, reducing the stomach hormone that makes you feel hungry, and thus profoundly affecting your appetite and improving your overall metabolism.Â
Sleeve gastrectomy in Turkey allows you to reach and maintain a healthy weight of your body and helps you control your blood sugar.Â
Advantages of the Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy in Turkey
The advantages of the bariatric sleeve gastrectomy in Turkey are, like the other bariatric gastric surgery options in Turkey: the reliable, fast, and safe weight loss and the improvement of all obesity-related illnesses.Â
Moreover, gastric sleeve surgery in Turkey is better than the other weight loss surgery options in that the simple and shorter nature of the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy operation makes it very safe without the potential complications from surgery involving rerouting the small intestine, in contrast to gastric bypass surgery, for example.
Gastric sleeve surgery in Turkey can also be performed in patients with high risk medical conditions and as a first step with severe obesity (Body-mass index, BMI, of over 35), another advantage when compared to gastric bypass surgery.
Disadvantages of the Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy in Turkey
The most prominent disadvantage of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in Turkey is that with these advantages of permanence of the stomach sleeve comes the fact that it is less effective than other bariatric surgery options and that it is irreversible, as the significant portion sealed is completely removed from the body.
Another disadvantage, shared with many of the other gastric surgeries in Turkey, is vitamin and mineral deficiencies, which can be avoided by following the gastric sleeve diet plan Tour for Cure Nutritionists will develop for you after the surgery.
Moreover, gastric sleeve weight loss surgery may worsen an already existing, or cause a new onset of, acid reflux or heartburn, which Tour for Cure Weight Loss Surgeons will discuss with you and assess in our extensive preparations with you prior to choosing the best bariatric surgery for you.
