Abstract

Obesity is a multifactorial disorder that results in excessive adipose tissue accumulation and is associated with non-infectious diseases. Obesity is a factor in many diseases such as dyslipidemia, diabetes, arteriosclerosis, hypertension, cancer, and other health problems. Obesity management is a combination and step-by-step approach, including lifestyle modification, dietary change, medicine management, and surgery. Bariatric surgeries have many procedures, such as jejuno-ileal bypass, subtotal gastrectomy, Fobi-Capella gastric band, Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy, Sleeve procedure, and others. Sleeve procedures and Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy are more common and become standard for obesity management. At Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, we started surgical treatment for obese patients in 2023. Up to now, there have been 2 cases that have been treated with bariatric surgery. We report 2 cases of obesity that were managed with laparoscopic Sleeve procedures. Both cases have good results and effectiveness in weight loss.
