Weight Loss Surgery Cost

Obesity surgery in Eskişehir is an operation that is applied to patients who cannot reach a healthy weight with exercise and diet programs, have chronic diseases and are included in the definition of "morbidly obese" in terms of obesity degree.

Being overweight is not a sufficient reason to have bariatric surgery. To determine whether you are suitable for this operation, your BMI (body mass index) value is checked, not your body weight. This value, which is expressed as the ratio of your weight to the square of your height (kg/m2), means that if it is between 40 - 49.9, you are "morbidly obese", and if it is 50 and above, you fit the definition of "super obese". Bariatric surgery can also be applied to patients with a lower BMI in some cases. For this, additional diseases in the patient are taken into account. Bariatric surgery can be applied to people with type 2 diabetes, triglyceride, sleep apnea, hypertension, fatty liver, hypoventilation and heart diseases and those with a BMI between 35 and 40, when deemed necessary for health reasons. If the BMI is between 30 and 35, type 2 diabetes can be evaluated and obesity surgery can be performed if the physician deems it necessary. People with a lower BMI value and a few kilos more can be directed to healthy diet, exercise and simpler medical solutions. Age range is also important for bariatric surgery. Obesity surgeries, which can be applied to individuals who have completed puberty, can be applied to people between the ages of 14 - 70 for the treatment of obesity.

Types of Weight Loss Surgery

There are basically two different methods to apply for weight loss surgery. One of them is sleeve gastrectomy and the other is by-pass surgery. While the gastric volume is reduced in sleeve gastrectomy operation, both the gastric volume and the absorption level of the intestines are interfered with by-pass procedures. In detail, the types of obesity surgery are listed as follows:

• Gastric sleeve surgery
• Laparoscopic Gastritis Bypass
• Duodenal Switch
• Biliopancreatic Diversion

In the sleeve gastrectomy method, the volume of the stomach is reduced. In this way, it is ensured that the patient is satiated with less food and weakened by reducing the portions. In by-pass procedures, the small intestine is also processed along with the stomach. In the Laparoscopic Gastritis Bypass procedure, the stomach is reduced by removing the part of the stomach excluding a small part close to the esophagus. By suturing the small intestine to this newly formed stomach, both the volume of the stomach is reduced and a certain part of the intestines is disabled, thus reducing the absorption. It is a method that can be preferred especially for diabetic patients who use insulin continuously to lose weight. Duodenal Switch method is also similar to laparoscopic gastritis bypass. In this process, the stomach part left in the body is in the form of an arm. Biliopancreatic diversion is less preferred compared to sleeve gastrectomy because of the higher probability of complications. It is performed by removing part of the stomach.
