Obesity and Metabolic Surgery Center at Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals Delhi, India
Obesity is no longer
just a lifestyle or cosmetic condition. It is now globally recognised as a
disease itself. It is a disease that not only predisposes individuals significantly
to a range of other diseases (like Type II Diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, asthma,
COPD, sleep apnoea, acid reflux, gall stones, infertility, impotency, and many
cancers amongst others), but also significantly reduces the life span of
individuals suffering from it.
We are going through
an obesity and diabetes pandemic, unprecedented in the history of the world. In
most of the western countries, between 50-80% of the population is either
overweight or obese. India is already the diabetes capital of the world and the
prevalence of obesity is rising very rapidly.
Surgery for obesity
and metabolic conditions (like type 2 diabetes mellitus, nonalcoholic fatty
liver disease etc.), also known as bariatric and metabolic surgery, has grown rapidly
in most western countries over the last two decades as a safe and effective
treatment for patients with severe obesity and/or uncontrolled diabetes
mellitus. This type of surgery is performed laparoscopically or robotically
using 5-6 small key-holes, which are hardly visible.
