Abstract
With the improvement of the national economy and living standards, the prevalence of obesity and related metabolic diseases is increasing yearly. The treatment effect of traditional diet control, physical exercise, and drug therapy are not ideal. Metabolic and bariatric surgery is not only aimed at weight loss, but also improves or resolves a variety of metabolic comorbidities, such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea syndrome, and hyperlipidemia, enhancing the quality of life of patients. Surgical methods are also updated and iterated with the continuous development of metabolic surgery for weight loss. At present, more than 50% of the mainstream procedures are laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). The application of LSG should focus on precise surgical operations and indications to avoid or reduce adverse reactions and complications, so as to maximize the effect of bariatric surgery. At the same time, standardized postoperative management, multidisciplinary team (MDT) and in-hospital database construction, dietary nutrition and exercise guidance after discharge, and regular follow-up review are still important guarantees for the weight loss effect.
