What is Bariatric Surgery & What to Expect?

Obesity or Weight Loss treatment and surgery is also known as Bariatric Surgery. It is the field of interventions made in the digestive system to reduce the food intake capacity of the stomach or to reduce the nutrient absorption in order to reach the ideal weight of obese and obese patients.

While each body condition of the patients are unique, it is necessary to determine the surgery and treatment from patient to patient individually. So the surgeons determines the methods and surgeries regarding the general condition of the patient, body mass index, existing diseases.

Obesity surgery is performed with laparoscopic techniques. It is also known as closed, bloodless or knifeless surgery. With the help of special camera devices connected to monitors, the surgeon can observe the inside of the abdomen without causing a large wound in the patient’s abdomen and can perform the surgical procedure more quickly and easily.

Obesity surgeries usually take 60-80 minutes. With such new techniques like laparoscopic techniques, you will experience fewer health problems, the hospital stay will be shorter like 3 days, and you will return to your normal life in 1 to 3 weeks as the recovery process is faster than those who have surgery with traditional-open ones.

After the Surgery

After the successful surgery, you will have a 2 year long routine check-ups, in every 3 months in the first year and every 6 months in the 2nd year.

Common Applications

Sleeve Gastrectomy

Sleeve gastrectomy is the most performed surgery method and performed by removing approximately 75-80% of the entire stomach. Since most of the stomach is surgically removed, the amount of food consumed is limited. In sleeve gastrectomy surgery, since the fundus region of the stomach, where ghrelin is produced, is removed, appetite decreases and weight loss occurs.

This method is a restrictive type of surgery and provides weight loss by reducing food intake. The effect of sleeve gastrectomy on diabetes and hypertension is also quite high.

Gastric Bypass

Gastric bypass is the surgery performed in the form of bypassing a large part of the stomach, leaving a very small part of the stomach just after the esophagus. The small intestine is brought to the stomach part in accordance with the technique and sutured. Therefore, both the stomach volume decreases and some of the intestines are disabled. And with method, blood sugar control of insulin-dependent diabetics is also regulated more effectively.

Gastric Balloon

Gastric Balloon is one of the easy to apply one among the controlled weight loss programs. It can also be safely applied.

Gastric Banding Surgery

This is applied by a band placed around the stomach, approximately 3-4 cm below the junction of the esophagus and the stomach.

Duodenal Switch Surgery

Duodenal Switch, also known as biliopancreatic diversion surgery, is a highly absorptive and partially volume-restricting surgery.

Complications of the bariatric surgery

The most important complications of the bariatric surgery in both sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass technique are leakage and bleeding. While there are modern techniques and experience, rates of this possibility decreased significantly and the ability to treat has increased.

The modern techniques, such as laparoscopic or robotics allow patients to quickly return to their normal life after surgery, while reducing pain and wound complication rates.

Who is a Candidate for Obesity Surgery?

The primary treatment for obesity is diet and exercise. Losing weight with personalized diet programs and exercise is the healthiest way. But we know that losing weight is unfortunately not easy and often the lost weight cannot be maintained.

  • Obese patients with a Body Mass Index > 40 kg/m2
  • Obese patients with a Body Mass Index > 35 kg/m2 and with systemic diseases such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, sleep-apnea, heart disease, polycystic ovary etc.

What is the post-op diet after Gastric Sleeve Surgery?

Obesity Bodrum


Yet, if we briefly explain what the post-op diet after the gastric sleeve surgery is like, we could list it as below: For the first week after surgery, you will follow a liquid diet to avoid post-operative complications, such as constipation, dehydration, or bowel obstruction. For the second week after the surgery, you can begin to consume full-liquids such as unsweetened milk, or sugar-free nutrition shakes. You will be able to add pureed foods to your diet during the third week after the surgery, and finally, during the fourth week after the procedure, you will be able to add solid foods to your diet, such as well-cooked vegetables or chicken and fish. It is crucial for a gastric sleeve patient to consume healthy meals once they begin to eat regular food, so that they don’t experience any vitamin deficiencies or inadequate weight loss due to wrong food choices.
