An Overview of the Gastric Sleeve Bypass Surgery ?

Gastric sleeve bypass is an innovative weight loss procedure usually chosen for people that have been medically determined to be morbidly obese. The surgery involves removing three quarters of the patient's stomach and performing a stapling on the left over linings to form a sleeve connecting the stomach to its original parts. The weight loss from this procedure occurs very fast and once the desired weight has been achieved, the procedure is done again to convert the sleeve into a gastric bypass or a duodenal switch to allow for the patient to get back to a normal lifestyle.
