Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG)

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) is a non-surgical weight-loss procedure that involves the use of an endoscope to create a sleeve-like structure in the stomach. This endoscopic approach is designed to reduce the stomach’s capacity and help individuals feel full with smaller amounts of food. Here’s an overview of the ESG procedure:
Procedure:

Endoscopic Insertion:
An endoscope is inserted through the mouth and into the stomach.

Suturing the Stomach:
Using the endoscope, the surgeon places sutures or stitches in the stomach to create a sleeve-like structure, reducing its size.

Restriction of Stomach Capacity:
The sutures help restrict the stomach’s capacity, limiting the amount of food it can hold.

How it Works:

Similar to surgical sleeve gastrectomy, ESG works by reducing the stomach’s size, leading to a feeling of fullness with smaller meals.

Benefits:

Non-Surgical:
ESG is a non-surgical procedure, and there are no incisions made in the abdomen.

Minimally Invasive:
Since the procedure is performed endoscopically, it is minimally invasive compared to traditional surgical interventions.

Considerations:

Temporary Effect:
While ESG can lead to significant weight loss, it is not a permanent solution, and individuals need to maintain lifestyle changes for sustained results.

Supervised Weight Loss:
Success with ESG often involves supervised weight loss programs, including dietary and lifestyle modifications.

Candidates:

ESG is generally recommended for individuals with a body mass index (BMI) between 30 and 40 who have not had success with diet and exercise alone.

Cost of endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) in Germany

In Germany, the cost may range from €15.060 to €16.240.
