Gastric Bypass is usually recommended for people with morbid obesity – whose weight is at least 100 pounds above their ideal weight. This surgery reduces the size of stomach, curbing hunger and cravings, and also re-routes part of the digestive system to partially prevent absorption of food. In the surgical procedure, the stomach is divided into a smaller upper portion and a larger lower portion. Small intestine is then connected to both portions. As a result the smaller portion serves as the primary stomach for digestion, requiring less food and less frequently.
Anybody trying to lose weight will understand that the hardest part of dieting is going hungry. It is also this hunger that gives rise to disorders like bulimia nervosa. A Gastric Sleeve is a surgical method whereby surgeons remove part of the stomach, often 3/4ths, and join the remaining portions to make a banana-sized stomach, or ‘sleeve’. The final stitched stomach is often 1/10th of the size of the original stomach, although it can differ depending on the individual. Moreover, this surgery removes the part of stomach that produces appetite boosting hormone.
Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is surgical gallbladder removal, used when a patient has stones in their gallbladder. A harmless gas, carbon dioxide, is used to inflate the stomach & several smaller incisions are used in this technique instead of a single larger cut. A narrow tube with a camera is used, which allows the doctor to observe the gallbladder & remove it through another small incision. Gallbladder is actually that organ which produces bile that helps in the digestion of fats in diet. Stones in gallbladder can hamper its functionality in digesting fats, & can also lead to infection.
Gastric Sleeve with Proximal Jejunal Bypass is a relatively newer technique in surgical methods of curing morbid obesity. This process requires an extremely cautious procedure whereby the greater curvature of the stomach is removed, first by devascularising and then distally firing. Part of the intestine called Jejunum is then divided, cut, and placed to the proximal bilio-pancreatic jeujanal limb. In simple words, stomach size is reduced, and small intestine is divided and then placed side by side with two openings from the stomach.
Laparoscopic Groin Hernia Repair is the surgical process to remove the hernia defect from the lower part of the abdomen. A Laparoscope camera is inserted in the body through a small incision to guide the surgeon’s movement by displaying the defect area on a monitor. In this process, the hernia sac is removed and a prosthetic mesh is replaced over the area to cover the hernia defect. No massive scars are left after this surgery because only small incisions are made during the process.
Laparoscopic Appendicectomy is the surgical process of removing the appendix through three small incisions. Appendix is a tube-like structure attached to the first part of the colon. While it functions in producing bacteria that fights infection, its purpose is not necessary. This surgery is often done to treat appendicitis, that is inflammation of the appendix requiring emergency treatment. Traditionally the process of removing the appendix leaves a massive and ugly looking scar. But this process requires only small cuts, as the appendix is viewed through a camera inserted inside via a tube.
