What Is a Mini Gastric Sleeve?

During traditional sleeve gastrectomy, a bariatric surgeon removes up to 85% of a patient's stomach. This gives the stomach the appearance of a sleeve, reduces the amount of ghrelin (the hunger hormone) present in the stomach, and restricts the amount of food patients regularly eat over the long term.

A mini gastric sleeve aims to accomplish the same goals as a traditional sleeve gastrectomy, but removes less of the digestive system: mini gastric sleeve reduces the stomach to 40%–50% of its original size. It is often a good choice for surgery patients who are active and have a body mass index (BMI) under 35.

Understanding Your Other Bariatric Options

While gastric sleeve and mini sleeve gastrectomy reduce the size of your stomach to help you lose weight, bariatric procedures like gastric bypass and mini gastric bypass are also types of laparoscopic surgery that are available to you. Dr. Martinez can help determine which surgery will benefit you most at our bariatric center in Tijuana.

Gastric Bypass Surgery

Gastric bypass separates the stomach into upper and lower pouches and reroutes the small intestine. This changes how much you can eat post-surgery and how your body absorbs food, resulting in significant weight loss.

Mini Gastric Bypass Surgery

In a mini gastric bypass, the stomach is divided and the intestines are rerouted, but there is only one new connection. Mini gastric bypass surgery can lead to weight loss results comparable to a traditional gastric bypass.
