How does laparoscopic gastric sleeve surgery work?

This limits the amount of food that is required to feel full. In addition, the portion of the stomach that makes the hormone ghrelin, which is responsible for making us feel hungry, is removed. However, there are additional hormones that are responsible for the feeling of hunger that eventually take over.

What is the gastric sleeve procedure performed?

This weight loss surgery procedure is performed laparoscopically by the Surgeons at Roller Weight Loss & Advanced Surgery. The advantages of the procedure include no implantation of an artificial device, no re-routing of the intestinal tract, and less frequent follow-up as compared to the lap band.

Are you a candidate for laparoscopic gastric sleeve?

If you have a BMI of 40 or more, or 35 or more and have an obesity-related condition such as type II diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, or cardiovascular disease, you may be a good candidate for this advanced minimally invasive surgery. 

What can you expect from the outcome of gastric sleeve surgery?

The primary disadvantage of this procedure is that there is no long-term data available regarding weight loss, but we now have mid-term data showing less weight loss and a higher rate of weight regain as compared to the gastric bypass and duodenal switch. In addition, it has been shown that the sleeve (stomach) can stretch with time.
