Silastic RingVertical Gastroplasty by Minilaparotomy
Copyright policy )Silastic RingVertical Gastroplasty by Minilaparotomy
The incision length has significant influence on the postoperative course after silastic ring vertical gastroplasty (SRVG).A technique is described in which SRVG can be performed through a minilaparotomy incision.110 patients were operated with this technique during 1996. No remarkable intraoperative or postoperative complications were encountered. Postoperative weight loss has been satisfactory.Performance of SRVG through a minilaparotomy is feasible. The technique is recommended for surgeons familiar with the operation through the formal incision.
