Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is one of the new methods used in bariatric surgery. This procedure is called laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy because it is performed laparoscopically by making 4 or 5 small incisions in the abdomen.
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is performed in hospital under general anesthesia. The surgeon performs this operation through a telescope with a camera at the end. With this operation, the large part of your stomach that serves as a storage will be removed. Therefore, you will eat less and you will feel full quickly due the fact that you will have a much smaller stomach.
