Denver Health's weight-loss surgeons perform the vertical sleeve gastrectomy (also called Gastric Sleeve) for severely overweight patients. During this minimally invasive procedure, about 75% of the stomach is removed to create a long "sleeve"-shaped stomach. Following surgery, patients can only eat very small amounts of food at one time and will feel full for several hours therefore limiting the amount of calories consumed.

My dad had the gastric sleeve 8 years ago. The only downside is he can only et or drink. He cannot do both.

@tawogtrailers a patient should not drink water while eating because it fills the small area that needs to be filled with nutritious foods. It can also make food slide through too quickly, which means it's not digested well. The rule for bariatric patients is to drink, wait 30 minutes, eat their meal and then wait 30 minutes.

I got diagnosed with IBD more specifically ulcerative colitis in early 2021 and was wondering if it would still be possible to get a gastric sleeve with this condition? And if so would there be complications?

@DenverHealth 2 жыл бұрын

Ivy, thank you for the good question! According to our experts in the Denver Health Bariatric Surgery Center, Bariatric surgery is possible and can be successful in patients with ulcerative colitits. An individualized approach is best depending on any prior surgeries that you have had, as well as any medications that you are on that might effect wound healing, so please talk to your doctor or provider. So the short answer is yes the sleeve is possible! *As with any major medical procedure, any advice provided here in the comments, in our videos or on our website should not take the place of professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.

Hi Sabrina. According to our doctors in the Denver Health Bariatric Surgery Center, yes, we can still do the surgery in the setting of prior mesh. Please be sure to talk to your doctor or provider for more information. **As with any major medical procedure, any advice provided here in the comments, in our videos or on our website should not take the place of professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.

After Having gastric sleeve surgery I’ve noticed my bowel movements are only maybe once a week, is this normal?

@DenverHealth 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you Sheila for your question! Our experts in the Denver Health Bariatric Surgery Center said that sometimes after surgery you can experience a change in the frequency of bowel movements. This is especially true with the Roux-en-Y Gastric bypass, though it can happen with the Gastric Sleeve surgery as well. If you had a bowel movement every day before surgery, it may be every 2-3 days after surgery. If you have bowel movements less frequently than daily, you may need to take medication like “MiraLAX” to keep from becoming constipated, but please consult with your medical provider before doing that. It’s most common for the month or so immediately after surgery because your provider will have you concentrating more on protein and less on fiber. This will usually resolve once you are able to eat more fiber.

Yes, Dr. Altamirano does it at the same time he is doing the sleeve. I think he only charges about $300 (2023) as he is doing the sleeve surgery, because it can cause reflux if not done.
