Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy: Bariatric Surgery Peak?
Journal Title: International Journal Of Medical Science And Clinical Research Studies - Year 2022, Vol 2, Issue 09
Abstract
Bariatric surgery is a great option not only for rapid weight loss but also as an alternative for type 2 diabetes mellitus and ravages of metabolic syndrome. The Surgical Therapy and Medications Potentially Eradicate Diabetes Efficiently showed that this surgical alternative is better than the more aggressive treatment against diabetes and the ravages of metabolic syndrome.The laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a restrictive bariatric operation. Weight loss is achieved by drastically reducing the capacity of the gastric chamber, consequently, making the patient undergoing this procedure reduce their food consumption. In addition to this, the presence of biochemical changes lead the patient to a state of significant weight loss, with ghrelin being the main hormone involvedVarious authors conclude that sleeve gastrectomy is "the holy grail of bariatric surgery", but it isnot. If so, this was the only surgery performed by these surgeons, which is not the case. Its benefits on the control of obesity as well as the almost complete remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus are very clear. Its intention is a surgery without the need for anastomosis and with preservation of the digestive tract, which makes it of very low mortality as well as future complications, including the few nutritional deficiencies that patients present after the procedure. In conclusion, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy deserves an important place among the bariatric procedures performed
