The gastric band is made of silicone and has an adjustable diameter. The surgeon places it around the upper part of the stomach, creating a small pouch. This approach aims to restrict the amount of food intake because this small pouch requires less food to trigger a rapid feeling of fullness.
The gastric sleeve is a procedure that involves the removal of a large portion of the stomach, including the section containing cells responsible for appetite regulation. This rapid feeling of fullness allows the patient to achieve significant weight loss. Additionally, the stomach is transformed into a vertical tube, which initially slows down the passage of food and then promotes their rapid transit to the small intestine.
Gastric bypass is a surgical procedure that aims to bypass a significant portion of the stomach by creating a gastric pouch. Food first enters this pouch before directly bypassing most of the stomach to reach the intestines, hence the term 'bypass,' which means 'detour' in English. As a result, the stomach's capacity to accept food is reduced, and the length of the small intestine is shortened, leading to decreased calorie absorption by the body.
Obesity surgery, known as bariatric surgery, is indicated for adults aged 18 to 60 who suffer from severe or morbid obesity and struggle to manage it. These patients must have a significant excess weight corresponding to a body mass index (BMI) higher than 35.
