In medicine, endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) is a minimally-invasive, non-surgical (incisionless), endoscopic weight loss procedure that is part of the field of endoscopic bariatric therapies. To perform ESG, a physician sutures a patient's stomach into a narrower, smaller tube-like configuration.

A gastric balloon, also known as an intragastric balloon (IGB) or a stomach balloon, is an inflatable medical device that is temporarily placed into the stomach to help reduce weight. It is designed to help provide weight loss when diet and exercise have failed and surgery is not wanted by or recommended for the patient.

Sleeve gastrectomy removes approximately 80% of the stomach laparoscopically, creating a tube-shaped stomach that restricts food intake and reduces hunger hormones. It is one of the most commonly performed bariatric procedures worldwide. The procedure is irreversible and requires lifelong dietary changes.

Gastric bypass surgery refers to a technique in which the stomach is divided into a small upper pouch and a much larger lower "remnant" pouch, where the small intestine is rearranged to connect to both. Surgeons have developed several different ways to reconnect the intestine, thus leading to several different gastric bypass procedures (GBP).

Bariatric surgery is a group of surgical procedures used to manage obesity and related conditions. Long-term weight loss with bariatric surgery may be achieved through alteration of gut hormones, physical reduction of stomach size, reduction of nutrient absorption, or a combination of these.

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is a bariatric surgery that creates a small gastric pouch (typically 15-30ml) and bypasses most of the stomach and proximal small intestine. The procedure has two mechanisms: restriction (small pouch reduces meal volume) and malabsorption (bypassed proximal small bowel reduces nutrient absorption). RYGB produces typically greater weight loss than sleeve gastrectomy in many series, better resolution of type 2 diabetes and reflux disease, and a more durable long-term result — at the cost of technical complexity, higher early-complication rate, more demanding lifelong nutritional supplementation, and a small ongoing risk of internal hernia.
