Gastric sleeve surgery offers patients who have had weight problems for years and have not reached the desired weight, the opportunity to get rid of the health problems, psychological problems and co-morbidities brought about by obesity and reach their goals. With the reduction process applied to the stomach, the amount of food eaten and appetite decrease.
