Can a person in the very early stage of stomach cancer have the bariatric sleeve surgery?

Surgical resection: Why not just do the surgical gastrectomy ( partial/total- accordingly) - to remove the cancer for good. And in the same time with gastrectomy you will also loose your weight. Sleeve surgery can be done-but that does not address your stomach cancer. Very early stomach cancer can be cured with surgery.

Stomach cancer: That depends on a lot of different things. Type of cancer, location, stage, etc. In general, stage 1 stomach cancer is treated by subtotal or total gastrectomy with lymphadenectomy. Having a sleeve gastrectomy is likely not an ideal option for you (unless it is a gist tumor on the greater curve of the stomach). You need to discuss with a surgical oncologist (not a bariatric surgeon) first.

Not really: If it is not invasive yet and it can be resected with the part of the stomach coming out then maybe. But if it is cancer, the. It is necessary to do a more extensive resection including lymph nodes.
