As a result of experiencing increasing gradually in the number of obesity in recent years and not giving enough good results for the obesity by the current conventional treatment models, the Gastric Sleeve Surgery has taken its place as the most applied surgical method all over the world and in our country. It is clear that the fact that it has been done more and more every year since the 2000s when it was put into practice is a result of the satisfaction of the doctor who applied the sleeve gastrectomy surgery and the patient who applied it.
The main purpose of the bariatric surgery is to reduce morbidity and mortality depending on the obesity, and to improve metabolic and organ functions. The appropriate patient and appropriate technique selection is very important in order to provide the highest benefit with the lowest risk. Therefore, the individuals who are suitable for the surgery are required to have certain criteria. Regardless of the BMI value, all individuals are required to have tried to lose weight with diet and exercise for 6 months before the bariatric surgery.
Roughly; the sleeve gastrectomy can be planned in the presence of at least two co-morbidity diseases (hypertension, diabetes, sleep apnea, etc.) in the patients whose BMI value is between 32 and 40. On the other hand, if the BMI value is over 40, the sleeve gastrectomy can be planned without the condition of the chronic disease depending on the obesity, since it is mentioned from the morbid obesity.
The gastric sleeve surgery has a restrictive feature as well as a hormonal effect. Since the Ghrelin hormone found in the fundus part of the stomach removed is deactivated, the feeling of hunger is suppressed in the period after the surgery.
The gastric sleeve surgery is performed with laparoscopic (closed) method by inserting camera and surgical instruments into the abdomen through tiny holes of 5 mm and 10 mm. The operation is completed within 20-30 minutes in our clinic series averagely. At the end of the surgery, the stomach volume is reduced by 80-85%.

If the patient does not have a serious risk depending on the co-morbidity diseases, the intensive care follow-up is not required.
