Gastric sleeve surgery is a weight loss surgery in which a large part of the stomach is removed. After the surgery, the feeling of fullness occurs more quickly, and satiety occurs after eating a small amount of food. This surgery results in less hunger pangs because a smaller stomach produces smaller amounts of the hunger-inducing hormone ghrelin.
In gastric sleeve surgery, the surgeon removes the rest of the stomach using a stapler to create a small tube or ‘pathway’ in the stomach. After surgery, the stomach is one-fifth full.
Gastric sleeve surgery is one of the types of obesity surgery, also known as weight loss surgery. This surgery is sometimes recommended for people who are very obese or have health problems caused by obesity. Gastric sleeve surgery should be preferred as the last step after evaluating other methods.
