Gastric sleeve surgery, also known as sleeve gastrectomy, is a surgical weight loss procedure that reduces the size of the stomach. During the procedure, a portion of the stomach is removed, leaving a smaller, sleeve-shaped stomach. This reduction limits the amount of food that can be consumed and may affect hormones involved in hunger and satiety, including ghrelin.
Many patients consider gastric sleeve surgery as part of a comprehensive approach to weight management. Individual experiences and outcomes vary, and eligibility depends on medical history and provider evaluation.
