What is Bariatric Surgery?

Obesity surgery, also known as bariatric surgery, is a preferred option to combat obesity when other weight loss methods are not successful. Obesity surgery can be performed with different techniques, such as shrinking the stomach or changing the digestive system. These procedures often promote weight loss by changing the patient’s eating habits and metabolism. Bariatric surgery may also be effective in reducing obesity-related health problems.

What are The Different Types of Bariatric Surgery?

1)Gastric sleev surgery

Gastric sleeve surgery is the process of removing a large part of the stomach, leaving only a narrow stomach tube. This reduces the volume of the stomach and limits the amount of food eaten. It may also improve appetite control and cause some hormonal changes.

2)Roux En Y Gastric Bypass Surgery

It is a procedure performed by removing part of the stomach and connecting it to the small intestine. In this method, some of the food passes directly into the small intestine, bypassing the stomach. This surgery reduces the size of your upper stomach to a small pouch about the size of an egg.

3)Mini Gastric Bypass Surgery

Mini Gastric Bypass is an obesity surgery that both reduces the stomach volume and reduces the absorption of food from a part of the small intestines, that is, malabsorptive. It is applied by a completely closed method. This means no large incisions are made in the abdomen.

4)Gastric Balloon Surgery

Gastric balloon, also known as gastric balloon, is an inflatable medical device that is temporarily placed in the stomach. It is one of the non-surgical methods used in the treatment of obesity. It is marketed for weight loss when diet and exercise have not worked and surgery is not desired or recommended.

How do I Choose The Best Bariatric Surgery Procedure?

In obesity surgery, it is important for the patient to lose weight significantly and in a short time. However, what is more important is that the patient does not regain the weight he lost or gains a very small amount and that the healthy profile obtained after the surgery is maintained for as long as possible. This is the point that is especially taken into consideration when choosing the treatment method in obesity surgery: Deciding which method can provide the most effective and longest-lasting recovery for which patient. Bariatric Surgery criteria that our surgeons use: For a BMI between 28 and 30, gastric balloon procedure is recommended. average 10 kilograms (22 lbs) when combined with exercise. If heartburn is present and caused by a hiatal hernia, then Gastric Sleeve or Mini Gastric Bypass will exacerbate the condition, so a Roux En Y Gastric Bypass Surgery will be recommended.

What Are The Risks of Bariatric Surgery?

Like any surgery, obesity surgery also has risks. However, the risk is generally the same as that of stomach surgeries. Generally speaking, in the preoperative period, patients must be evaluated thoroughly by anesthesia, endocrinology, psychiatry and cardiology. The risk of anesthesia must be determined well.

What is Body Mass Index (BMI)?

Body mass index (BMI) or height-weight index is a calculation method that shows the estimated fat content of a person’s body. This method is based on the person’s height to weight ratio. According to the result of the index, the proximity and distance of the person’s current weight to his/her ideal weight can be calculated

How is Body Mass Index Calculated?
Body mass index is calculated by dividing the body weight by the square of the height
(kg/m⊃2;).
Results below 18.5 kg/m⊃2;: Below ideal weight
Results between 18.5 kg/m⊃2; and 24.9 kg/m⊃2;: Ideal weight
Results between 25 kg/m⊃2; and 29, 9 kg/m⊃2;: Above ideal weight
Results between 30 kg/m⊃2; and 39, 9 kg/m⊃2;: Above ideal weight (obese)
Results above 40 kg/m⊃2;: Above ideal weight (morbidly obese)
