Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG)
- ESG is an endoscopic procedure that uses internal sutures to reduce stomach volume without removing part of the stomach. It is less invasive than surgery but is still a medical procedure with specific indications, risks and follow-up needs. It is not the same as surgical sleeve gastrectomy.
