Weight loss surgery in Bangalore is an effort to surgically modify the digestive system with the intention to achieve weight loss or reduce weight gain. The surgery is only advised in cases where the dangers of excessive weight and weight gain significantly threaten the health of the patient.
Some of the Interventional Treatments:
- Gastric bypass
- Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch
- Sleeve gastrectomy
- Adjustable gastric band.
Facilities & Services
A few treatments available for bariatrics are Gastric bypass - Which is a procedure that reduces the size of the stomach surgically by dividing the stomach pouch into two. The small intestine is then divided, and the lower end of the divided small intestine is connected to the first part of the stomach pouch. The 2nd part of the stomach and the upper portion of the small intestine are still connected, so lower down the small intestine, gastric juices produced in the 2nd part of the pouch will eventually mix with the food. The smaller stomach pouch means that the patient's appetite as well as the ability to eat is significantly reduced. The bypass can lead to dramatic changes in weight loss. A gastric bypass allows people with chronic weight gain problems to lose weight which would otherwise endanger their lives. The procedure also requires certain dietary restrictions to be followed by the patient post-surgery since some digestive functions will not function as they used to.
