Bariatric (or weight loss) surgery has been performed for many
years. Unlike the gastric bypass and adjustable gastric banding
(LAP-BAND?
or Realize Band?
), a number of operations were performed with only short-term
success or significant complications. Some examples of these
operations include VBG (vertical banded gastroplasty) and
nonadjustable gastric bands.
The surgeons at St. Francis Hospital perform revisions, either open
or laparoscopically, on individuals who are having complications
from their previous weight loss surgery. Indications for revisions
are:
-
Persistent
vomiting
-
Persistent
nausea
-
Pain
