Weight Loss Surgery - so called bariatric surgery - is a rapidly developing area of surgery. These are not merely cosmetic procedures but operations on the stomach and sometimes also the intestines. These operations are performed by minimally invasive, laparoscopic so called "keyhole" surgery. The most common procedures are Gastric Banding and Gastric Vertical Sleeve Resection. Weight Loss Surgery helps obese people to limit substantially the amount of food consumed and therefore leads to significantly better long term results in weight reduction and in the treatment of weight related co-morbidities when compared with conservative methods of therapy. Many co-morbidities, particularly Type II Diabetes Mellitus, Hyperlipidemia, Sleep Apnoea and Hypertension are improved and even completely relieved by Weight Loss Surgery which therefore has been called "metabolic" surgery, too.
The primary goal of bariatric and metabolic surgery is the reduction of obesity related health risks. The surgical option has always been considered only after conservative methods of treatment have failed and provided the criteria on BMI (Body Mass Index) are fulfilled. Suitability for surgery has to be confirmed by specialist internists, endocrinologists and by psychologists.
WLS procedures are done in the operarating theatre under general anesthesia and last from one to three hours. Three to five days hospital stay are usually sufficient depending of the type of the operation.
