Is acid reflux a concern after sleeve gastrectomy?
Is acid reflux a concern after sleeve gastrectomy? 🩺✨ Let’s break it down: Traditionally, it’s thought that 1 in 8 or 1 in 9 patients without pre-existing reflux may develop de novo reflux after a sleeve. But how severe or controllable it is remains uncertain. 🤔 However, recent debates suggest that reflux might be more related to excess weight rather than the sleeve itself. As patients lose weight post-surgery, reflux often improves. 🏋️♂️💡 The takeaway: proceed cautiously, but reflux isn’t an absolute contraindication for a sleeve. ✅ #SleeveGastrectomy #BariatricSurgery #AcidReflux #WeightLossJourney #MedicalEducation #DoctorTalk #HealthcareInsights #Shorts
