what is Gastric Sleeve Surgery

What is gastric sleeve surgery?

Gastric sleeve surgery or sleeve gastrectomy is a type of weight loss surgery in which your surgeon removes about 80% of your stomach to reduce its volume. Typically after gastric surgery, the new stomach has very little storage volume which causes early satiation after eating. 

The reduction in stomach volume also helps to eliminate stomach cells that produce ghrelin, the hunger hormone which causes hunger drive. The significant reduction in ghrelin causes a decrease in appetite which further accelerates weight loss. 

The hormonal changes also help in managing or reversing symptoms associated with being overweight like sleep apnea and high blood sugar levels.
