Gastric Sleeve Vertical sleeve gastrectomy is an advanced bariatric procedure that removes 80% of your stomach, leaving you with a much smaller, sleeve-shaped organ that holds 100 to 150 mL of food and liquid. Because your stomach is significantly smaller, you will become fuller faster and consume less overall. Sleeve gastrectomy is quite safe, and leaves all nerves and sphincter muscles untouched.

Gastric Sleeve Gastric sleeve surgery is a restrictive only procedure in the same fashion as adjustable gastric banding. Using a skinny tube, about 1 cm in diameter, a series of surgical staples are applied against the stomach to create a new longer and skinnier stomach that holds only 2 ounces at any given time. The residual larger portion of the stomach is removed because it can no longer drain its secretions. With the residual stomach removed from the body, the new stomach tube fills and empties with the normal anatomic connections and no bypass is needed. Read More

Gastric Sleeve With this minimally invasive weight loss surgery, your stomach will be reduced to about 20% to 30% of its normal volume, to restrict food intake. Normally, this surgery is done laparoscopically by a laparoscopic surgeon specialist. This stomach reduction surgery follows the major curve of the stomach and the part that remains resembles a sleeve (approximately shape of a banana) in appearance. Thus the name gastric sleeve or sleeve gastrectomy. This surgical intervention is not as complicated as gastric bypass because the intestines are not involved. You also will have greater tolerance for food. Read More
