Laparoscopic gastric sleeve surgery
تقوم Laparoscopic gastric sleeve surgery in Egypt is based on removing a large proportion of the lateral part of the stomach so that only a very small part of the stomach remains after surgery, the size of a banana or similar to a tube.
Gastric sleeve surgery, in turn, reduces the amount of food a person eats at one time,
It makes one feel full for a longer time, thus reducing the desire to eat; This stimulates the body to use stored fat to provide energy.
Gastric bypass surgery
is one of the effective methods that a large group of people resort to in search of a safe and quick solution to lose weight, reduce food intake and reduce food absorption after their continuous attempts to lose weight in several ways. Laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery is a cut to the size of the stomach, which means that the largest part of the stomach is removed and a small pouch is created that is able to hold the least amount of food at any time,
This requires the patient to eat small amounts of food because the stomach's absorption of food quantities has become much less, which helps to reduce calories.
This surgery is characterized by rapid weight loss compared to the gastric sleeve operation;
They are ideal for obese and moderately obese patients who wish to obtain a permanent solution to their obesity.
The main difference here between gastric bypass and gastric sleeve is that in gastric bypass it still passes through the entire length of the intestine,
Because the size of the stomach after gastric sleeve surgery that remains after surgery is smaller,
The removal of the entire left part of the stomach is the most prominent feature of this operation;
As the hormone responsible for stimulating the feeling of hunger and once this part of the stomach is removed; It also means removing this hormone
SASI (loop bipartition) surgery
It mainly depends on reducing the amount of absorption of sugars and fats and modifying the digestive hormones to control sugar and pressure and lose excess weight;
So that the size of the stomach is reduced (gastric sleeve) while reducing the absorption of food using the laparoscope through holes or openings that do not exceed 1 cm;
It is through which the stomach is sleeved with a connection of 250 cm to 300 cm from the end of the small intestine to the last part of the stomach through a single connection so that there are two paths in front of the food:
The first: in which a gastric sleeve is done and a gastric bypass is done together in the same operation, and thus the stomach has two drainage holes for eating,
The first is for gastric sleeve surgery, which is the natural exit of the stomach.
The second: by connecting the stomach to the intestine after excluding part of it, and thus part of the food goes in the normal path
So that vitamins and minerals are absorbed for the body to benefit from.
The cost of various slimming operations

If it is a hospital or a medical center, and the type of operation itself, whether it is a surgery or a systemic, as well as based on the method of anesthesia used,
And will the cost include the anesthesiologist, tests and analyzes before surgery and follow-up after it or not.
Which one is more appropriate?
The difference between gastric sleeve and gastric bypass in terms of long-term weight loss with gastric sleeve,
Weight loss occurs gradually over a longer period of time.
By gastric bypass, the weight achieved over a longer period of time is approximately the same regardless of the procedure chosen.
Each procedure, whether laparoscopic gastric sleeve surgery, gastric bypass, or laparoscopic surgery, and the Sassi operation has its advantages,
But the person’s choice depends on the doctor’s decision, which surgery is appropriate for his health condition and brings the desired fruits.
