About Bariatric Surgery in Kolhapur
Bariatric (weight-loss) surgery changes the stomach and/or intestine to reduce how much you can eat and how your body handles food. It is considered for people with severe obesity, especially when obesity-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes or sleep apnoea are present. Bariatric Surgery procedures treat the stomach and digestive tract. Of the 4 bariatric surgery treatments on Go Surgery, 1 usually lets you go home the same day or the next.
Common operations include sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass. Surgery is a tool rather than a cure — long-term success depends on lifelong dietary changes, activity, vitamin supplements and regular follow-up.

Conditions
These are common reasons patients in Kolhapur seek a bariatric surgery consultation.
Treatments
Sleeve Gastrectomy
About three-quarters of the stomach is removed laparoscopically, leaving a narrow sleeve. This limits portion size and reduces hunger hormones.
Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
A small stomach pouch is created and connected directly to the small intestine, bypassing most of the stomach. It is particularly effective for type 2 diabetes and reflux.
Mini Gastric Bypass
A long, narrow stomach pouch is joined to a loop of small intestine with a single connection.
Intragastric Balloon
A soft balloon placed in the stomach endoscopically takes up space to help you eat less. It is temporary (usually 6–12 months) and non-surgical.
Gastric Bypass vs Sleeve Gastrectomy: Bariatric Surgery
| Features | Gastric Bypass | Sleeve Gastrectomy |
