Bariatric Surgery
Bariatric surgery (weight loss surgery) includes a diversity of techniques performed on individuals who have obesity. Bariatric surgery, also known as weight-loss surgery, encompasses a range of surgical procedures aimed at helping individuals with severe obesity achieve significant weight loss. These procedures include gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, adjustable gastric banding, and biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch, each with its own approach to reducing stomach size or altering the digestive process. By restricting food intake, altering digestion, or a combination of both, bariatric surgery can lead to substantial weight loss, improvements in obesity-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and sleep apnea, and overall enhancements in quality of life, However, bariatric surgery is not a panacea and requires a lifelong commitment to lifestyle changes, including diet, exercise, and regular medical follow-ups. The success of the surgery heavily depends on the individual's adherence to these new habits, as well as their ability to manage potential post-surgical complications such as nutritional deficiencies or gastrointestinal issues. Patients must also undergo a thorough pre-surgical evaluation to assess their readiness for the procedure and ensure they are informed about the risks and benefits associated with the surgery, Weight loss is attained by plummeting the size of the stomach with a gastric band or through the exclusion of a part of the stomach (sleeve gastrectomy or biliopancreatic redirection with duodenal switch) or by resecting and re-directing the minor digestive tract to a little stomach sack (gastric bypass surgery).
