Facilities & Services
At Manipal Hospitals Salt Lake, we perform different types of bariatric procedures depending on the patient’s disease profile for best results. These bariatric & metabolic procedures include:
-
Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy: This procedure is aimed at removing a significant portion of the stomach to reduce the size of the stomach (sometimes by as much as 15%). The stomach then looks like a sleeve or a tube. This is followed by attaching the open ends of the stomach through surgical staples or sutures.
-
Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: This procedure involves the creation of a small pouch of the stomach with a stapler. The pouch is directly connected to the small intestine, thus completely bypassing the remaining part of the stomach. Book an appointment to know more about Weight Loss surgery in Kolkata.
-
Laparoscopic Mini Gastric Bypass: During this procedure, a long gastric tube is created, which is then connected to a small bowel via the single anastomosis. This procedure is also called one or single-anastomosis gastric bypass (SAGB).
-
Revision Bariatric Surgery: This surgery is recommended to correct or repair the problems that are generally associated with the previous bariatric procedure.
-
Duodeno-jejunal bypass: This procedure involves performing a sleeve gastrectomy as described above along with bypassing a length of small intestine.
