Body mass index ranges used in review
The procedure pages already print one kind of review: a BMI of 40 or higher, or of 35 or higher with a related disease. The 2022 ASMBS and IFSO statement is a separate published guideline. Neither row is an acceptance from this clinic.
| Range | What published guidance discusses | What Pompeii México does |
|---|---|---|
| BMI 40 or higher | Programs that follow widely published guidance often review surgery at this range. | Dr. Sergio Quiñones reads the record. The number is not an acceptance. |
| BMI 35 to 39.9 with a related disease | That same guidance often includes type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. | Pompeii México uses that kind of review and does not print the cutoff as a guarantee. |
| BMI 30 to 34.9 with metabolic disease | The 2022 ASMBS and IFSO statement discusses surgery in this range. | It is a published professional statement, not a promise from this clinic. His evaluation still decides. |
| Below those ranges | Published programs do not describe this as the usual surgical threshold. | He may review the record and may decline an operation. |

The figure below is arithmetic. It does not clear you for an operation, and it does not choose a procedure.
Related diseases that change the review
A related disease can move a person into the BMI 35 review. It does not, by itself, mean an operation is suitable.
-
Type 2 diabetes
Type 2 diabetes is the example the procedure pages already use for a BMI of 35 or higher. It does not by itself clear a person for an operation.
-
High blood pressure
High blood pressure is the other example already published there. Medicines, readings, and the rest of the record still go to Dr. Sergio Quiñones.
-
Reflux
Significant reflux may lead him to discuss a bypass instead of a sleeve. That is a choice under review, not proof that surgery should happen.
-
Medicines that are hard to sustain
People who have tried structured diets or GLP-1 injections still need their own surgical opinion. Stopping an injection is a medical decision, not a website instruction.
When a procedure may not be suitable
These are situations the site already names as reasons a date is delayed or not offered. The list is not complete. The record can add others.
-
Pregnancy
Pregnancy is an example, already named on the procedure pages, of a situation that delays surgery.
-
Untreated ulcer
An untreated ulcer is addressed before a date is discussed. Operating through it raises risk without fixing the cause.
-
Active nicotine
Active nicotine use delays surgery. The procedure pages name it as a reason a date is not offered yet.
-
A plan the person cannot follow
Age, prior stomach surgery, and the ability to follow a liquid diet all change the decision. Sometimes the safest plan is not to operate.
People who already had an operation
Revision starts from an operation that already exists. It is not a first sleeve and it is not a first bypass.
-
The old note decides
Revision repairs or converts an operation that already exists. The prior operative note decides what is even possible. A webpage cannot see that note.
-
No published package price
Sleeve is published at $4,900 and bypass at $5,800. Revision does not have a published package price. The sleeve price is not the revision price.
-
The operation may be smaller, or absent
Sometimes the safest revision is smaller than the person hoped. Sometimes the safest plan is not to operate. Both answers are allowed.
-
No weight figure
Pompeii México does not publish an expected loss figure for revision. Dr. Sergio Quiñones confirms an operation only after he reviews the note.

Questions about candidacy
What BMI does Pompeii México review?
Published guidance on the procedure pages often looks at a BMI of 40 or higher, or 35 or higher with type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. The 2022 ASMBS and IFSO statement also discusses a BMI of 35, and of 30 to 34.9 with metabolic disease. Dr. Sergio Quiñones makes the final decision. A row in the table is not a clearance.
Can the surgeon decline an operation?
Yes. Pregnancy, an untreated ulcer, and active nicotine use are examples that delay surgery. Age, prior stomach surgery, and the ability to follow a liquid diet also change the decision. If he does not clear the person, the trip is not a booked surgery. The review deposit is $0.
Who is reviewed for revision surgery?
Someone who already had a bariatric operation, and who can send the operative note. Revision has no published package price. Dr. Sergio Quiñones may offer a smaller operation, or no operation. This page does not state a weight-loss result.
