2. Gastric bypass surgery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastric_bypass_surgery

   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 ...

   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.

6. Adjustable gastric band - Wikipedia

   Adjustable gastric bands hold between 4 and 12 cc of saline solution, depending on their design. [citation needed] When the band is inflated with saline solution, it places pressure around the outside of the stomach. This decreases the size of the passage between the pouch created from the upper part of the stomach and the lower stomach and ...

7. Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty - Wikipedia

   Unlike the surgical sleeve gastrectomy, the ESG does not appear to affect central appetite signaling through the hunger hormone, ghrelin. [29] This is thought to be because the surgical sleeve removes the fundus, the primary site of ghrelin production, and the relatively thinner-walled fundus is avoided in the ESG for safety concerns.
