FAQ
-
Sleeve Gastrectomy: Reduces stomach size by removing about 70-80% of it, which decreases appetite and helps with consuming smaller amounts of food. It doesn’t affect nutrient absorption and is simpler than gastric bypass, but it’s less effective in treating diabetes.
-
Gastric Bypass: Divides the stomach and connects the smaller part directly to the small intestine, which reduces both food intake and absorption. It’s very effective for treating obesity and related conditions like diabetes, but it’s more complex and may require lifelong nutritional supplements.
The choice depends on the patient’s condition, health needs, and doctor’s recommendations.
What are the risks of gastric bypass surgery?
Gastric bypass surgery is effective for treating severe obesity, but it carries some risks, including:
-
Surgical Complications: Such as bleeding, infection, or leakage at the connection between the stomach and intestines.
-
Vitamin and Mineral Deficiencies: The surgery reduces nutrient absorption, which may lead to deficiencies in vitamins like B12, iron, and calcium, requiring lifelong supplements.
-
Dumping Syndrome: A condition where food moves too quickly from the stomach to the intestines, causing nausea, sweating, dizziness, and diarrhea.
-
Intestinal Blockage: An obstruction in the intestines can occur due to surgical changes, requiring medical intervention.
-
Increased Risk of Gallstones: Due to rapid weight loss.
-
Long-term Side Effects: Such as stomach ulcers, low blood sugar, and chronic diarrhea.
Patients should discuss these risks with their doctor and evaluate them before deciding to proceed with the surgery.
The success rate of gastric bypass surgery is generally high, with a success rate ranging from 85% to 90%. Success is typically measured by achieving a loss of 50% or more of excess weight within the first year after surgery. Additionally, many obesity-related conditions, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and sleep apnea, often improve or even resolve entirely following the procedure.
However, long-term success depends on the patient’s commitment to lifestyle changes, including maintaining a balanced diet, regular exercise, and ongoing medical follow-ups to monitor for potential complications.
