OBESITY

The degree and severity of obesity is determined Depending on the weight, age and height of the patient
One of the following operations has been approved:

  • Stomach Botox
  • Stomach balloon
  • gastric sleeve
  • Gastric bypass

Stomach Botox:

It is a simple one-day procedure (without hospitalization) Performed by endoscopy where Botox is injected into certain parts of the stomach, causing loss of appetite and reduces the desire to eat. It is a temporary process that leads to a slight weight loss and its repeatable if needed every six months.

Stomach balloon:

The medical Gastric balloon is also implanted endoscopically inside the stomach cavity. The balloon fills a large part of the stomach space, which leads to a quick fullness feeling and inability to eat large quantities of food, which leads to moderate weight loss. The balloon is also a temporary procedure where the balloon can be removed after six months or a year depending on the need.

Modern self-dissolving balloons also available so that the patient does not have to do an operation to remove them, as they are removed automatically after six months or a year, depending on the type of balloon

Gastric sleeve:

It is a surgical endoscopic operation in which 70-80% of the stomach is removed and the other part of the stomach remains, preserving the physiological functions of the stomach, which reduces the complications of surgical work and nutritional deficiency following previous obesity operations.

This process is currently called the “Sleeve” process and the operation is used in cases of moderate and slightly above-average obesity

Gastric bypass:

This process bypasses the stomach and part of the small intestine, and the stomach loses its full function. This process leads to severe weight loss. We resort to this procedure in sever obesity cases.

Despite the complications of the operation such as nutritional deficiencies and vitamins which can be corrected by medications, it is 100% reliable if performed correctly by an expert surgeon to reduce weight to the ideal weight within short period and it’s currently being performed by endoscopy.

Laser Hemorrhoid Plasty

Laser hemorrhoid plasty is a relatively new procedure for hemorrhoid treatment in which the hemorrhoidal blood flow is coagulated by the laser. Prior to procedure, patients need to be anesthetized by the anesthesiologist. Subsequently, the procedure will be conducted by the coloproctologist / colorectal surgeon, the laser probe will be inserted into the hemorrhoids. Due to an intense amount of heat, the laser beam cauterizes and seals off the blood vessels, therefore the hemorrhoid will simply shrink while reducing the risk of excessive bleeding during and after the procedure. Since laser hemorrhoid plasty is a precise procedure, it leaves no effect to the surrounding tissues as well as the anal sphincters. Processing time takes 5-8 minutes. No narcosis and no side effects related to narcosis. Since there is no surgery, no examination or analysis is required before the treatment Being hungry or full does not prevent the treatment. There is no incision and suture application. Since the tissues are not damaged, healing is fast. You can have both examination and treatment at the same time. It does not require hospitalization as it is comfortable and fast like a dental filling. Pain is less in the Non-Surgical Anal Hemorrhoid Treatment process. Complications in classical surgeries are not observed. (Gas incontinence, stool incontinence, severe pain…) It can also be applied to patients with chronic diseases (heart, diabetes, blood pressure, rhythm disorder, etc.). What is Hemorrhoids (Hemorrhoids)? Hemorrhoids (hemorrhoids) are enlarged veins at the bottom of the rectum and anus, at the end of the anal canal. The walls of these blood vessels are sometimes stretched so wide that they become irritated by swelling even more. As a result of this swelling and irritation, they go out of the anus. This condition is also known as hemorrhoids or mayasil among the people. Hemorrhoids are divided into internal and external hemorrhoids and are measured in four different degrees according to their symptoms. What are Internal Hemorrhoids? Internal hemorrhoids are in a point in the breech that is too deep to be seen or felt. They usually do not cause pain or suffering due to the small number of pain-sensing nerves in the area where they are located. Blood in the stool, toilet bowl or toilet paper is the most obvious sign. Apart from this, it is possible to see hemorrhoids as moist bumps with a pinker color than the surrounding tissue. These are called prolapsed hemorrhoids. These hemorrhoids may retract on their own or they may be softly pressed in. What are External Hemorrhoids? External hemorrhoids are just under the skin on the outer wall of the anus. Since there are more pain-sensing nerves here, the symptoms of external hemorrhoids include pain, bleeding, itching and swelling.
