Sleeve gastrectomy is one of the surgical methods considered in the treatment of obesity. During this procedure, also known as gastric sleeve surgery, a large portion of the stomach is removed to create a smaller, tube-shaped stomach. This aims to reduce the amount of food that can be consumed and help patients feel full earlier.
Eligibility for sleeve gastrectomy is determined by considering the patient’s body mass index, age, general health condition, eating habits, and obesity-related diseases. Before surgery, blood tests, imaging procedures, anesthesia assessment, and necessary specialist consultations may be planned.
After sleeve gastrectomy, patients gradually progress through liquid, puréed, and solid food stages. Adequate protein intake, vitamin and mineral supplementation, regular check-ups, and physical activity are important parts of the process. Surgery alone is not sufficient for long-term weight control. Adapting to a new eating pattern, maintaining portion control, and attending the follow-up program regularly are essential for successful outcomes.
