What is obesity?
Also known as obesity or severe overweight, it is a chronic and complex condition characterized by an excessive accumulation of body fat. The diagnosis of obesity is usually made using the Body Mass Index (BMI), a simple screening tool that describes the ratio of weight to height. A BMI of 30 or higher is classified as obesity.
Causes
Obesity arises from a combination of genetic, behavioral, environmental, and metabolic factors.
Excessive calorie intake: A diet high in calories, sugar, and fat.
Lack of exercise: An inactive lifestyle with little physical activity.
Genetic predisposition: Genetic factors can influence fat distribution and metabolic efficiency.
Hormonal imbalances: Certain hormonal disorders can contribute to weight gain.
Medications: Some medications can cause weight gain as a side effect.
Risks
Obesity is associated with a range of serious health problems, including:
Cardiovascular diseases: Increased risk of hypertension, heart attack, and stroke.
Type 2 diabetes: One of the most common complications in obese individuals.
Respiratory diseases: Increased risk of sleep apnea and asthma.
Orthopedic problems: Joint pain and osteoarthritis due to increased stress.
Cancer: Increased risk of certain cancers, including breast, colon, and prostate cancer.
Psychological issues: Increased risk of depression, anxiety disorders, and low self-esteem.

Laparoscopic sleeve resection
This procedure reduces stomach volume, promoting significant and long-lasting weight loss. It is performed minimally invasively, allowing for faster recovery and less postoperative pain.
Laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery
This complex surgery reduces stomach volume and changes the flow of food through the small intestine, affecting both food intake and hormonal regulation of appetite.
