Gastric Sleeve
read moreGastric sleeve surgery is a restrictive type of procedure that permanently reduces the size of the stomach, thereby limiting food intake as well as the sensation of hunger. This procedure does not involve intestinal rerouting or malabsorption unless followed by Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and uses only the client's own natural tissues. Gastric sleeve is performed laparoscopically and removes approximately 80 percent of the client's stomach along the greater curvature, leaving only a long tube (or "sleeve") for the new - much smaller - stomach pouch.
