Obesity Surgery - Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG)
Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG)
A minimally invasive bariatric procedure that reduces stomach volume by 70% with an endoscopic suturing system without requiring surgical incisions, with rapid recovery.
About the Operation
Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) is a non-surgical bariatric treatment that permanently reduces stomach volume by 60–70% by placing durable sutures on the inner wall of the stomach using an endoscopic suturing device (OverStitch) passed through the mouth, and extends the satiety period with a delayed emptying mechanism. No hospital stay is required, and return to work can be achieved within 3–5 days.
Application Details
- 1No surgical incision is made; an endoscopic suturing device is passed through the mouth.
- 2A tube-like shape is created by applying a U-shaped suture pattern to the inner wall of the stomach.
- 3The risk of complications is significantly lower compared to surgery.
- 4Can be converted to laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy if sufficient results are not achieved.
Who Is It Suitable For?
- Individuals with BMI 30–40 who are seeking a minimally invasive method that does not require surgery
- Individuals who are not suitable for laparoscopic surgery due to their general health status or who are reluctant about surgery

View AllSleeve Gastrectomy
A bariatric surgery in which 80% of the stomach is laparoscopically removed to form a tube-shaped stomach, reducing the hunger hormone (ghrelin).
Gastric Bypass
The gold standard bariatric surgery in which the stomach is converted into a small pouch and a portion of the small intestine is bypassed, both restricting intake and reducing absorption.
Gastric Balloon
A non-surgical weight loss method in which a saline-filled silicone balloon placed in the stomach via endoscopy remains for 6–12 months, providing early satiety.
Mini Gastric Bypass
A simpler single-anastomosis, shorter-duration laparoscopic bariatric procedure compared to standard Roux-en-Y bypass.
