Action What is gastric bypass surgery?
This operation is not a classic surgery with large incisions and is a minimally invasive procedure or even without general anesthesia, which is included in the category of international procedures. During this operation, the doctor inserts a fine catheter into the blood vessels feeding the stomach through the thigh or wrist artery and reduces the blood flow of the vessels related to the secretion of appetite hormones with special substances. How to close the esophagus requires high precision, specialized equipment and the experience of an international doctor; Because the smallest mistake can increase the risk of causing damage to the stomach tissue.
The important point is that the term closing is more of an advertising title; In practice, the vessel is not closed, but its blood supply is limited. So when people ask themselves what does it mean to close the appetite vessel? They should know that this process is a purposeful and principled obstruction.
Closing the appetite vessel in the stomach
The truth is that the act of closing the gastro-oesophageal vein exists scientifically, but it is still not accepted as a standard slimming method in many countries. The main reason for this is the need for long-term research on the side effects of occluding the appetite vessel and comparing its effect with established slimming methods.
In Iran, this method is limited and performed only by some international specialists. From the point of view of experts such as Dr. Majid Faraji who have been working in the field of interventional methods for years, the method of closing the esophageal vein should be done by carefully examining the patient's condition, assessing the risks and taking into account the body mass index.
diff Closing the esophagus with stomach Botox
Stomach botox by injecting botulinum toxin slows down the movement of the stomach and slows down the process of emptying food. But in the method of closing the appetite vessel, the goal is to reduce the feeling of hunger by inhibiting the hormone ghrelin. The main differences between these two methods are as follows:
- Botox has a temporary effect (3 to 6 months); But closing the alimentary canal has a longer-term effect.
- Stomach botox is reversible; Closing the appetite vessel is not reversible.
- Closing the appetite vessel requires international equipment and doctor's experience.
The table below provides a general summary of the pros and cons of oesophageal ligature based on available studies.
| Advantages | disadvantages and complications |
|---|---|
| Decreasing appetite by hormonal mechanism | Possibility of stomach pain or inflammation |
| Minimally invasive method without the need for open surgery | Risk of damage to stomach tissue |
| Suitable for people who are not bariatric surgery candidates | Uncertain long-term effects |
| short recovery period | Possibility of insufficient weight loss |
| no need for general anesthesia | Relatively high cost |
This table shows that occlusion of the alimentary canal has complications and it is not recommended to make a hasty decision about it. Therefore, you should be sensitive in choosing a reliable and experienced doctor.
Is Is closing the appetite vein a way to lose weight?
In patients whose body mass index is between 30 and 40 and who are not candidates for heavy surgeries such as sleeve or bypass, this method can be effective to some extent. But in obese people, this method is not a substitute for classical methods. Also, people who have digestive disorders, stomach ulcers or vascular problems may not be suitable candidates. For this reason, experts like Dr. Majid Faraji emphasize on person-centered evaluation before performing any procedure.
cost How much is the occlusion of the esophagus?
The cost of closing the appetite vein is one of the most frequent questions of patients. In general, the cost of gastric bypass surgery is determined based on the following:
- Type of treatment center and equipment
- Doctor's salary
- Requirement or lack of additional imaging
- Clinical status of the patient
Is Is this method suitable for everyone?
Closing the appetite vein is a minimally invasive and new way to lose weight, which reduces appetite hormone secretion by reducing blood supply to a part of the stomach. However, it is still not a fully established method and its disadvantages, such as the possibility of stomach damage or uncertain long-term effects, should be taken seriously. Comparing this method with stomach Botox shows that each has its own place. Accurate patient selection, complete evaluation and operation by an international specialist doctor play a key role. Meanwhile, the presence of doctors like Dr. Majid Faraji, who have years of experience in the field of cardiovascular interventions, can guarantee the safety and quality of this procedure.
