prepare for sips surgery
On the day you decide to have the SIPS surgery, you must adhere to a specific diet and change your lifestyle. Pre-op diet mostly focuses on shrinking the liver and reducing the fat in the abdomen so that the surgeon can easily and safely operate.
There may be instances where the doctor postpones the surgery if the liver is too large or hasn’t shrunk to the expected level. Also, the pre-operative weight loss is associated with fewer complications post-surgery.
You should avoid smoking and alcohol. Your doctor might prescribe vitamin supplements to support you through the surgery and post-op care.
steps of sips surgery

Step 1-Anesthesia:
General anesthesia is applied during the operation.
Step 2- Making small incisions in the abdominal wall:
The surgeon makes up to 5 small incisions in your abdomen. Through these incisions, he place the camera and special instruments to carry out the surgery.
Step 3- Filling the abdomen with carbon dioxide gas:
The surgeon will fill your abdomen with carbon dioxide gas to create more space between the organs, so he can safely carry out the procedure.
Step 4- Removing the top part of the stomach:
The surgeon removes the top part of the stomach while also sealing nearby blood vessels to control bleeding.
Step 5-Creating a stomach pouch:
The remaining portions of the stomach are joined together using surgical staples to create the stomach pouch.
Step 6-Creating a bypass in the intestine:
The surgeon then create a bypass by cutting your intestines just past the pyloric valve and reconnecting them to the last portion of your small intestine.
Step 7-Close the incisions:
The surgeon complete the surgery by removing the camera and instruments and closing the incisions with stitches.

Once discharged from the hospital after having a SIPS surgery, you will need to rest at least two weeks. This means no driving, no heavy lifting, and no strenuous activity. You will also need to follow a special diet during this time.
You should drink plenty of fluids, especially water, to stay hydrated. Eat small meals frequently throughout the day, and chew your food slowly and thoroughly.
Avoid high-fat, high-sugar, and high-calorie foods. You should exercise regularly to help with weight loss and to improve your overall health.

• Lack of information about long-term effectiveness:

• Increased number of bowel movements:
The procedure will cause an increase in the number of your bowel movements, the average is 2.5 times.
• Increased risk of leaks:

What is a SIPS surgery?
SIPS surgery, or Single Incision Pediatric Surgery, is a minimally invasive surgical technique designed primarily for children. This procedure involves making a single small incision, typically around the navel, to access the abdominal cavity.
How many incisions for SIPS surgery?
SIPS surgery, which stands for Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery, typically involves making a single incision. This incision is strategically placed in a location such as the belly button, allowing the surgeon to access the abdominal cavity without multiple cuts. The approach minimizes scarring and enables quicker recovery compared to traditional methods that require several incisions.
Why is carbon dioxide used for SIPS surgery?
Carbon dioxide is used for Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SIPS) because it effectively creates a working space in the abdominal cavity. By insufflating the abdomen with carbon dioxide, surgeons can visualize and access internal organs more easily.
How is an intestinal bypass created in the SIPS surgery?
In SIPS surgery, an intestinal bypass is created through a precise surgical technique that involves rearranging the gastrointestinal tract. The surgeon first identifies and isolates a portion of the small intestine. This section is then connected to the stomach, effectively bypassing a significant length of the intestine.
What is the reason for the increased risk of leakage in the SIPS surgery?
SIPS surgery, or Single Incision Pre-Pyloric Surgery, presents an increased risk of leakage primarily due to the unique surgical technique employed. This method often involves a single entry point, which can lead to complications with securing the internal connections made during the procedure.
Results
SIPS stands for Stomach Intestinal Pylorus-Sparing Surgery. It is a relatively new surgical procedure that combines the benefits of the sleeve gastrectomy and the standard gastric bypass. SIPS surgery decreases the size of the stomach and bypasses part of the food digestion process to help lose weight.
