What is Obesity?

Obesity is when the body accumulates excess fat. It is a severe health problem that can lead to complications such as diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. According to Unicef's World Obesity Atlas, More than 27 million obese children might live in India by 2030, representing 1 in 10 children globally.

Types of Gastrointestinal Bariatric Surgery

  • Restrictive bariatric surgeries reduce the size of the stomach. They include Gastric Banding, Vertical Banded Gastroplasty (VBG), and Sleeve Gastrectomy.

  • Malabsorptive bariatric surgeries limit nutrient absorption. They include Duodenal Switch and Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch (BPD-DS).

  • Bariatric surgery can be performed laparoscopically or through an open incision. The surgeon removes a portion of the stomach and bypasses a part of the small intestine to restrict food intake. These surgeries help people who have tried other methods to lose weight but have not been successful.

Manipal Hospitals recommends the best bariatric surgery in Delhi based on a thorough analysis of the patient's condition.

Treatments

Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding

  • Adjustable Gastric Banding (AGB) is a form of bariatric surgery that uses laparoscopic techniques to place an adjustable band that creates a small pouch around the stomach's upper part. 

  • The process restricts the amount of food one can swallow. The band can be adjusted or tightened by injecting or removing fluid through a port in the abdomen.

Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy

  • Sleeve gastrectomy removes most of the stomach. The remaining part of the stomach is turned into a tube-shaped "sleeve" and stapled to the abdominal wall. Doctors recommend it to patients with a body mass index (BMI) above 35-40. The procedure helps them lose weight by reducing their stomach size as it restricts the amount of food they can eat at one time, which helps them lose weight more quickly than they would otherwise.

  • The procedure requires only tiny incisions in the abdomen for inserting specialised equipment such as cameras and tools used during the surgery.

Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass

  • Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass reduces the stomach's capacity by creating a small pouch at the top of the stomach, allowing smaller meals to be taken in and digested. The surgery also includes a bypass of part of the intestine, which reduces the absorption of nutrients from food.

  • The best bariatric surgeon in Delhi performs it laparoscopically using small incisions on the abdomen resulting in less pain, shorter hospital stays and quicker recovery times than traditional open surgery.

Laparoscopic Mini Gastric Bypass

  • Mini Gastric Bypass reduces the volume of the stomach and bypasses part of the small intestine. It helps people lose weight by limiting the amount of food they can eat and slowing down digestion, leading to fewer calories.

  • The surgeons make two small incisions in the abdomen and then insert a camera through one incision so they can see inside the body. They make another small incision in the stomach, which lets them stretch and reshape it. Then they connect the newly shaped stomach to a small portion of the small intestine, bypassing part of it.

Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch

  • Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch involves sleeve gastrectomy, where the surgeon removes 80% of the stomach while leaving the oesophagus and part of the small intestine intact. Then, they create a reservoir pouch where food will be stored before it passes through to the small intestine.

  • The second step bypasses most of the intestine by connecting the end portion to the duodenum near the stomach, allowing food to go directly into the small intestine and exit the body without digestion.

  • The procedure helps with weight loss and reduces the risk of related conditions like heart disease.

Revision Bariatric Surgery

  • Revision Bariatric surgery repairs a previous weight loss surgery or corrects complications like ulcers, pouch enlargement and loose bands.

  • Revision bariatric surgery can help improve the long-term outcomes of a person's weight loss surgery by correcting complications that may have occurred due to their initial operation.

  • It aims to improve the patient's life quality after having previous weight loss surgeries and experiencing complications. These complications may include pouch enlargement and loose bands, among others.

Endoscopic Balloon

  • The endoscopic balloon is a temporary placement of a balloon in the stomach to reduce the volume and size of the stomach. Surgeons use a small tube to place the endoscopic balloon into the mouth and the oesophagus. At this point, it is inflated with water or air until it reaches its maximum expansion, up to four times its original size. This process takes only seconds and does not require sedation or anaesthesia.

  • Once expanded, the endoscopic balloon helps to reduce symptoms such as heartburn and acid reflux by limiting how much food can enter the stomach at one time. 

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty

  • Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty sutures the stomach reducing it to a smaller size. The procedure uses an endoscope, a long thin tube with a light at the end, to help guide the surgeon. The endoscope has a camera that allows the surgeon to see inside the body.

  • After the surgery, food passes through a smaller stomach pouch and into a small intestine pouch at a slower rate than normal digestion, helping to control hunger and prevent overeating during meals.
