Understanding Bariatric Surgery Procedures
Gastric Bypass Surgery
Gastric bypass surgery is highly effective for weight loss. It involves creating a small stomach pouch and rerouting the small intestine, reducing food intake and calorie absorption. Patients often experience significant weight loss and improvements in conditions like type 2 diabetes and hypertension.
Sleeve Gastrectomy
In a sleeve gastrectomy, about 80% of the stomach is removed, reducing appetite and restricting food intake. This procedure significantly lowers the hunger hormone ghrelin and is one of the most popular bariatric procedures in Turkiye.
Adjustable Gastric Banding
Adjustable gastric banding involves placing an inflatable band around the upper stomach, creating a small pouch. The band is adjustable and requires regular follow-ups for optimal weight loss. This procedure is less invasive but has slower results compared to other surgeries.
​
Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch (BPD/DS)
BPD/DS is a complex procedure that combines sleeve gastrectomy with intestinal rerouting. It’s highly effective for severe obesity but requires experienced surgeons due to its complexity.
​
Given the strong connection between obesity and cardiovascular health, it’s important to monitor heart health before and after weight loss surgery. Our Cardiology Services offer comprehensive heart evaluations.
