In medicine, endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) is a minimally-invasive, non-surgical (incisionless), endoscopic weight loss procedure that is part of the field of endoscopic bariatric therapies. To perform ESG, a physician sutures a patient’s stomach into a narrower, smaller tube-like configuration. [ 1 ]
Sleeve gastrectomy or vertical sleeve gastrectomy, is a surgical weight-loss procedure, typically performed laparoscopically, in which approximately 75 - 85% of the stomach is removed, [1] [2] along the greater curvature, [3] which leaves a cylindrical, or "sleeve"-shaped stomach the size of a banana.
However, Roux-en-Y patients had a higher likelihood of hospitalization and additional abdominal surgeries compared to sleeve gastrectomy. [61] Though, since 2013, sleeve gastrectomy has overtaken RYGB as the most common bariatric procedure. [18] RYGB remains one of the two most commonly performed bariatric surgeries in the world.

The SADI-S is a single anastomosis bariatric surgery. It is different from the classic duodenal switch, the gastric bypass (RNY) or sleeve gastrectomy.It is a type of bariatric surgery carried out to lose weight and to mitigate various metabolic issues including type 2 diabetes, dislipidemia, metabolic syndrome, and polycystic ovary syndrome.
An adjustable gastric band is an inflatable silicone prosthetic device that is placed around the top portion of the stomach. This procedure can be performed as a revision procedure for many patients who have had a previous stomach stapling, gastroplasty procedure, or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery but have regained weight.
In recent comparisons with sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass has shown slightly better outcomes in diabetes remission and weight maintenance. According to a 2021 evidence update, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) patients were more likely to maintain weight loss over five years, with a reduced relapse rate in Type 2 diabetes. However, RYGB was ...
Gastroenterostomy, anastomosis of gastric cardia to jejunum. A gastroenterostomy is the surgical creation of a connection between the stomach and the jejunum.The operation can sometimes be performed at the same time as a partial gastrectomy (the removal of part of the stomach).
Billroth II, more formally Billroth's operation II, is an operation in which a partial gastrectomy (removal of the stomach) is performed and the cut end of the stomach is closed. The greater curvature of the stomach (not involved with the previous closure of the stomach) is then connected to the first part of the jejunum in end-to-side anastomosis.
