The Option Of Sleeve Gastrectomy New Jersey As A Weight Solution

By Peter Reed


The most common Obesity surgery is what is known as Gastric bypass surgery. This is also known as stomach stapling which is reducing the size of the stomach by stapling off a portion. Other variant procedures are Gastric Bypass, Biliopancreatic Diversion BPD, Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding and Tube Gastrectomy (Sleeve Gastrectomy). Another available option is the sleeve gastrectomy New Jersey procedure.

Unlike Gastric Bypass, Sleeve Gastrectomy doesn't involve cutting and rerouting of the intestines. Instead, the operation removes the "Greater Curvature" or the left side of the stomach. This operation allows weight loss through two mechanisms. First: it decreases the size of the stomach hence allowing its owner to easily achieve the sensation of fullness. Second: it works by removing the fundus of the stomach which produces the hormone Ghrelin.

LAP-BAND- Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding is mostly a restrictive approach in weight loss. By attaching a small silicone device around the uppermost part of the stomach, the organ's function is minimized. Compared to Sleeve Gastrectomy and Gastric Bypass, the Lap-Band is a relatively simpler operation that achieves similar results. Moreover, the size of the Lap-Band is adjustable even after it has already been attached.

More important than all the above is the requirement that people taking to surgical treatments need to be monitored for complications for life and they have to make adjustments to their lifestyle adjustments all through the rest of their lives.

Since laparoscopic procedure requires a smaller cut, it leads to shorter hospital stay, lesser recovery time and smaller scars than with open bariatric surgery. Most surgeons prefer the laparoscopic approach because it creates less tissue damage, and has reduced risk of wound complications such as infection and hernias, which usually occur after surgery.

Following the laparoscopic surgery, many patients are able to recover in a fraction of the time. Depending on their general health condition, some patients return to work in less than two weeks and many are able to quickly return to physical activity.

This bariatric surgery changes the normal digestive process causing fewer calories and nutrients entering the body. Gastric bypass surgery will require a permanent change in eating and how patients actually views food. Nutritional counseling is also a strong recommendation for new gastric bypass patients before and after surgery.

Likewise, not all bariatric surgeons are trained to perform this less-invasive laparoscopic method. According to the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS), laparoscopic operation should be performed only by bariatric surgeons who are experienced and well versed in both laparoscopic and open techniques.

Prior to the surgery, you basically need to start embracing the lifestyle that you will live after the surgery. Whether you are required to follow a new diet or not, you must learn what eating will look like after the surgery and make sure you can adjust to that lifestyle.
