Sleeve gastrectomies — better known as “Gastric Sleeve Surgeries” — are the most common type of bariatric weight loss procedures and now make up more than 60% of all such procedures in the United States. Dr. Sergey Terushkin, a renowned leader in the bariatric surgery field, performs gastric sleeve procedures regularly using a minimally invasive, laparoscopic technique.
Before considering undergoing a gastric sleeve procedure, it is important to understand exactly what the surgery entails.
During a gastric sleeve surgery, Dr. Terushkin will make five keyhole-sized incisions to remove roughly 80% of the left side the stomach, leaving the stomach roughly the size and shape of a banana. In addition to this reducing the body’s capacity for intake and decreasing appetite, the segment of the stomach which is removed also houses hormone producing cells, thereby decreasing cravings and hunger.
Gastric sleeve procedures have gained a tremendous amount of popularity in recent years. In fact, in many cases, sleeve gastrectomies are the preferred bariatric weight loss procedure of many surgeons — including Dr. Terushkin — due to a number of benefits over other similar procedures, including.
If you are still unsure of whether you are a good candidate for gastric sleeve surgery, Dr. Terushkin will gladly walk through the procedure with you and determine your best course of action.
