Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) is gaining recognition as a minimally invasive and effective treatment for obesity. Endorsed by international and national obesity societies, ESG involves reducing stomach size through internal suturing, leading to significant weight loss with a low rate of serious adverse events. Its less invasive nature compared to traditional bariatric surgery offers advantages such as better tolerance, fewer complications, and quicker recovery times, making it a valuable option for patients with mild to moderate obesity or those seeking alternatives to surgery.
