What does LSG mean?

Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG) is a weight loss surgery that reduces the size of the stomach.
LGS is performed laparoscopically, hence the name.

Note:
Laparoscopy, also known as keyhole surgery is a type of minimally invasive surgical procedure that allows a surgeon to access the inside of the abdomen (tummy) without having to make large incisions in the skin with the aid of a Laparoscope, a tool that has a tiny video camera and light on the end.
