About the procedure

Sleeve gastrectomy is a laparoscopic operation in which part of the stomach is removed, forming a smaller "sleeve." This leads to a reduction in appetite and quick satiety, which contributes to gradual weight loss and maintaining the result to a greater extent.

The procedure not only helps achieve the desired weight but also helps normalize metabolic processes, which positively affects overall health.

Indications for sleeve gastrectomy

• High body mass index (BMI):Sleeve gastrectomy is usually recommended for patients with a BMI of 31 and above, which corresponds to severe obesity
• It may also be considered for patients with a BMI of 31-35 if they have comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, or sleep apnea
• Comorbidities:Patients with obesity-related diseases such as cardiovascular disease, osteoarthritis, gastroesophageal reflux disease may be candidates for this surgery if excess weight aggravates their condition
• Ineffectiveness of conservative methods:People who have not been able to achieve significant weight loss through diet, exercise, and drug treatment may consider sleeve gastrectomy as an alternative

Upon arrival, various preoperative procedures and tests will be conducted to assess your health condition. After the tests are completed, you will be examined by an anesthesiologist. Your attending physician, along with an interpreter, will visit you, conduct an examination, and answer all questions about the upcoming operation. Additionally, a chest examination, lung function tests, and cardiological examination will be conducted. These procedures are usually performed the day before surgery.

Before the endoscopy, your attending physician will visit you and provide information about the procedure. You will need to refrain from eating for about 8-9 hours before the endoscopy. All necessary tests and examinations will be completed. A nurse will escort you to the endoscopy department, where the procedure will be performed under sedation. The doctor will examine your stomach and prepare it for sleeve gastrectomy surgery. After a 15-20 minute endoscopy, you will be transferred to the operating room, where the anesthesiologist will begin the anesthesia procedure in the presence of the attending physician. The sleeve gastrectomy operation, including all necessary procedures, takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour. After the operation, you will be transferred to the recovery room.

In the ward, your blood pressure, pulse, respiratory functions, and wound healing will be monitored. Your attending physician will visit you after the operation and provide information with the help of an interpreter.
