Bariatric & Metabolic Surgery

Sleeve Gastrectomy

Sleeve gastrectomy is a type of weight-loss surgery (bariatric surgery) in which approximately 75–80% of the stomach is removed, leaving a narrow, tube-shaped stomach resembling a sleeve or banana.It helps people lose weight by reducing the amount of food they can eat and changing hormones involved in hunger and fullness.Who may be eligible?Eligibility depends on BMI, medical conditions, previous weight-loss treatments and local guidelines.People with severe obesity who have struggled to lose weight with nonsurgical treatment.People with obesity-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure or sleep apnea.In some cases, people with a lower BMI and significant metabolic disease, following specialist assessment.BenefitsSignificant, often sustained weight loss.Improvement in type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure.Possible improvement in sleep apnea, mobility and quality of life.No intestinal bypass, unlike gastric bypass surgery.Many patients lose roughly 20–30% of their starting body weight over 1–2 years, although results vary.Risks and complicationsLike any major operation, sleeve gastrectomy has risks.Early risksBleeding or infection.Leakage from the staple line.Blood clots.Anesthetic complications.Long-term risksAcid reflux or worsening of existing reflux.Vitamin and mineral deficiencies.Weight regain.Narrowing or twisting of the stomach sleeve.Need for another procedure in some cases.

Duodenal Switch ( BPD / DS )

Duodenal Switch (DS), formally called Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch (BPD/DS), is a type of bariatric (weight-loss) surgery that combines two procedures:Sleeve gastrectomy — removes a large portion of the stomach.Intestinal bypass — reroutes the small intestine so food mixes with bile and pancreatic enzymes closer to the end of the small intestine.This reduces food intake and nutrient absorption, producing substantial weight loss.  2. Mechanism of weight lossBPD/DS works through three main mechanisms:Restriction: The smaller stomach limits the amount of food consumed.Malabsorption: Shortening the segment where food mixes with digestive enzymes reduces absorption of calories and nutrients, particularly fat.Hormonal and metabolic changes: Alterations in gut hormones and nutrient flow can improve satiety and blood glucose regulation.3. IndicationsBPD/DS may be considered for:Severe obesity, particularly when substantial weight loss is needed.Patients with a high BMI and obesity-related complications.Selected patients with difficult-to-control type 2 diabetes.Some patients requiring revisional bariatric surgery, depending on their previous procedure and clinical circumstances.Eligibility depends on individual assessment, current guidelines and the expertise of the bariatric team.

One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB / MGB)

One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB), also known as Mini Gastric Bypass (MGB), is a bariatric surgery that reduces stomach capacity and reroutes a portion of the small intestine to promote weight loss and improve obesity-related metabolic conditions. Key featuresOne anastomosis: Usually requires one connection between the stomach pouch and small intestine.Restrictive effect: The smaller stomach pouch limits food intake.Metabolic effect: Often improves type 2 diabetes and other obesity-related conditions.Malabsorptive effect: Bypassing part of the intestine reduces absorption of some nutrients and calories. 

Bariatric & Metabolic Surgery

Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG)

One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB), also known as Mini Gastric Bypass (MGB), is a bariatric surgery that reduces stomach capacity and reroutes a portion of the small intestine to promote weight loss and improve obesity-related metabolic conditions.  Key featuresOne anastomosis: Usually requires one connection between the stomach pouch and small intestine.Restrictive effect: The smaller stomach pouch limits food intake.Metabolic effect: Often improves type 2 diabetes and other obesity-related conditions.Malabsorptive effect: Bypassing part of the intestine reduces absorption of some nutrients and calories. 

Bariatric & Metabolic Surgery

Gastric Bypass ( Roux-en-Y )

Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) is a bariatric surgery that reduces the size of the stomach and reroutes part of the small intestine. It helps patients lose weight by limiting food intake, reducing absorption of some nutrients and changing gut hormones involved in appetite and blood sugar regulation.  Main mechanismsRestriction: The small pouch limits the amount of food eaten at one time.Hormonal changes: Gut hormones such as GLP-1 and PYY can increase satiety and improve glucose regulation.Reduced nutrient absorption: Some absorption is reduced because food bypasses the duodenum and part of the jejunum. 

Bariatric & Metabolic Surgery

Loop Duodenal Switch

Loop Duodenal Switch, commonly referring to SADI-S (Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy), is a bariatric surgery that combines sleeve gastrectomy with a single intestinal connection. It helps achieve substantial weight loss and can improve obesity-related metabolic conditions.How does it promote weight loss?Restriction: The smaller stomach reduces meal capacity.Malabsorption: Food mixes with bile and pancreatic enzymes farther down the intestine, reducing absorption of calories and some nutrients.Hormonal effects: Changes in gut hormones can improve satiety and blood sugar control. Important: Loop duodenal switch is a major metabolic operation. Its benefits must be balanced against malabsorption and nutritional risks, and the precise intestinal configuration should be confirmed with the bariatric surgeon.

Bariatric & Metabolic Surgery

Mini-Gastric-Bypass-(MGB)

Mini-Gastric Bypass (MGB), also called One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB), is a type of weight-loss (bariatric) surgery. It helps people with obesity lose weight by reducing the size of the stomach and changing how food travels through the digestive system.How does MGB work? Smaller stomach: The surgeon creates a long, narrow stomach pouch, so you feel full after eating smaller portions.Intestinal bypass: The pouch is connected to a section of the small intestine, bypassing part of the digestive tract.Weight loss: You eat less, and changes in digestion and gut hormones also help with weight reduction.The procedure is usually performed laparoscopically, using small abdominal incisions.Benefits and expected weight lossAccording to patient information from the AethelCare and other medical sources, MGB can offer: Significant, sustained weight loss.Improvement in type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and sleep apnoea.Reduced hunger and earlier fullness.A single connection between the stomach pouch and intestine, rather than the two connections used in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.Many patients lose approximately 25–35% of their total body weight, although results vary.Risks and disadvantagesMGB is major surgery and has important potential risks:Bile reflux and heartburn.Bleeding, infection, blood clots or leakage from the surgical connection.Ulcers, dumping syndrome and bowel obstruction.Iron, vitamin B12, calcium, vitamin D and protein deficiencies.Need for lifelong supplements, regular blood tests and follow-up.Possible further surgery if significant complications develop.Recovery after surgeryRecovery varies by individual and the surgical centre. Many patients stay in hospital for around 1–2 days. Eating generally progresses from liquids to puréed and soft foods, then to regular textures according to the surgical team's instructions. Lifelong nutritional monitoring is essential.

Gastric Banding ( Lap – Band ) Surgery

Gastric banding surgery, also known as laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) or Lap-Band surgery, is a type of bariatric surgery performed to help people with obesity lose weight.DefinitionIt is a minimally invasive surgical procedure in which an adjustable silicone band is placed around the upper part of the stomach to create a small pouch. This limits the amount of food the stomach can hold and helps the person feel full sooner.ProcedureThe patient is given general anesthesia.Small incisions are made in the abdomen.A laparoscope and surgical instruments are inserted.An adjustable silicone band is placed around the upper stomach.The band is connected by tubing to a small access port placed under the skin.The surgeon can adjust the tightness of the band by adding or removing saline through the port.Mechanism of actionCreates a small upper stomach pouch.Restricts the amount of food consumed at one time.Slows the passage of food into the lower stomach.Promotes early satiety and helps reduce calorie intake.AdvantagesNo part of the stomach or intestine is removed.The band is adjustable.The procedure is generally reversible.Usually involves a shorter initial recovery period than some other bariatric procedures.ComplicationsNausea and vomiting.Difficulty swallowing.Band slippage or erosion.Enlargement of the stomach pouch or esophagus.Infection or problems with the access port.Inadequate weight loss or weight regain.Possible need for another operation to remove or revise the band.Postoperative careStart with liquids and gradually progress to soft foods and then solid foods as directed.Eat small portions slowly and chew food thoroughly.Attend regular follow-up visits for band adjustments.Maintain adequate hydration and nutritional intake.Follow the prescribed diet and exercise plan.Important pointGastric banding does not remove stomach tissue, but it is performed less often today because long-term weight loss is generally less reliable and reoperation rates are higher than with procedures such as sleeve gastrectomy or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.In summary: Gastric banding is a restrictive bariatric procedure that helps control food intake by placing an adjustable band around the upper stomach.
