Sleeve Gastrectomy

Sleeve Gastrectomy

Sleeve Gastrectomy is a surgical weight loss procedure in which the stomach is lessened to around 15% of its unique size, by surgical evacuation of a large portion of the stomach along the greater curvature. The result is a sleeve or tube like structure. The method permanently reduces the size of the stomach, despite the fact that there could be some dilatation of the stomach later on in life. The procedure is for the most part performed laparoscopically and is irreversible.
