Obesity surgery in India at renowned medical institutions:
OBESITY, one of the most serious epidemic health disorder of modern life style that leads to a preventable cause of death worldwide, with increasing prevalence in adults and children, and medical experts declare it as one of the most serious public health problems of 21st century. One is always worried about diseases like diabetes, hypertension, cardiac, cancer, infertility, problems etc.
How does obesity surgery work to provide weight loss:
Obesity surgery alters the digestive process and promotes weight loss by reducing the parts of stomach to make it smaller. These weight loss operations that reduce stomach size are known as “restrictive operations” because they restrict the amount of food the stomach can hold. Some operations combine with a partial bypass of the small intestine. These procedures create a direct connection from the stomach to the lower segment of the small intestine. Such obesity surgery procedures are called mal absorptive surgeries. Gastric bypass along with revision, lap band surgery with revision, gastric sleeve surgery, laparoscopic and roux-gastric-bypass surgery are some well known procedures in this respect. An experienced doctor, after studying your medical case can tell which kind of obesity surgery would be suitable for a particular obesity patient.
Obesity surgery by laparoscopic method:
Laparoscopic obesity surgery is easier for patients because it uses very small incisions. In "open surgery" on the abdomen usually requires a 20- 25 cm incision through layers of skin and muscle. In laparoscopic surgery, the surgeon usually makes two to three incisions that are about just 0.5 – 1 cm long. The smaller incisions cause less damage to body tissue, organs, and muscles so that the patient can go home sooner, recover quickly, experiences fewer post-operative complications and less pain and is associated with less scaring. Many people can return to work and their normal routine three to five days after surgery.
Comparison of obesity surgery costs with respect to India:
On comparing cost of obesity surgery between western countries and India we find a wide monetary difference though Indian obesity surgery hospitals follow same healthcare protocols that are followed in USA and UK . American and European hospitals may charge an amount of $ 40000 US for procedures like revision gastric bypass and revision lap band but when one comes to weight loss surgery hospitals of Mumbai and Goa he/she will be amazed to see price reductions upto 55%. Indian healthcare system is advanced yet cheaper in comparison to western countries. Cheap cost yet abundant man power has led foreign medical hospitals to invite Indian doctors and surgeons to acquire medical expertise in renowned medical institutions. These trained doctors and surgeons after working a couple of years in the west are providing their world class services at Indian hospitals at affordable costs thus attracting patients and medical tourists from the west.
