Outcome of Vertical Banded Gastroplasty

Obesity Surgery, 1999
Vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG) is the most frequently performed operation in bariatric surgery. Since the beginning, this intervention has been favorably accepted by bariatric surgeons for its simplicity and the absence of late metabolic and nutritional complication.

Reflux Control Following Gastroplasty

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1977
A Belsey gastroplasty was performed on 135 patients, 132 of whom were available for follow-up. Despite a low incidence (1.5%) of anatomical recurrence, the operation failed to control reflux effectively, and the incidence of continued reflux is 44.6%. Because of this failure to control reflux, a Nissen fundoplication has been added to the gastroplasty ...

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty

2021
Restriction of gastric volume is a cornerstone of most bariatric and metabolic surgical procedures, and endoscopic bariatric therapies have been designed to mimic these surgical interventions. First performed in 2008 as part of a trial at Brigham & Women’s Hospital and the Cleveland Clinic, the concept of endoscopic sutured gastroplasty eventually ...

A technique for gastroplasty as a substitute for the esophagus: fundus rotation gastroplasty.

Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 1996
A new method of gastroplasty for the intrathoracic esophagus is described that requires resection of a small part of the gastric corpus only. All tributaries of the arterial arcade along the lesser curvature are preserved.The resulting gastric tube has three advantages over conventional techniques: an increase in length of the resulting gastric tube ...

Collis gastroplasty: Origin and evolution

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1990
In 1957 J. Leigh Collis published his innovative operation for treating the difficult problem of the irreducible hiatal hernia, esophagitis, and stricture. The design of the operation was based on the relatively primitive understanding of hiatal hernia and the newly emerging concept of reflux esophagitis. A variety of antireflux operations by different

Gastroplasty in Morbid Obesity: Observations in 300 Patients

Southern Medical Journal, 1985
Morbid obesity is associated with a number of life-threatening complications. Medical treatment of morbid obesity is rarely successful. Gastric reduction has replaced intestinal bypass as the surgical treatment of choice. Indications for operation are fairly standardized, and complications and results are similar in most large series.

Silastic RingVertical Gastroplasty by Minilaparotomy

Obesity Surgery, 2000
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.

Gastric Restrictive Procedures: Gastroplasty

Gastroenterology Clinics of North America, 1987
Gastroplasty for the treatment of morbid obesity has developed over the last 20 years from inconsistent suture technique operations to precisely constructed procedures. To date, the best results are achieved with the most recently developed techniques, vertical (mesh) banded gastroplasty, and silicone elastomer ring vertical gastroplasty.

UNCUT COLLIS-NISSEN GASTROPLASTY

Chest Surgery Clinics of North America, 1995
Surgical treatment of gastroesophageal reflux because of an incompetent lower esophageal sphincter and obstructive symptoms owing to a partial or incomplete intrathoracic stomach has evolved tremendously over the past several decades. Currently, there are several different techniques to improve the abnormalities caused by these defects, of which the ...

Gastroplasty Combined with Partial Fundoplication

Scandinavian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1980
Gastroplasty, as proposed by Collis, combined with fundoplication of varying degree, has been increasingly used during recent years for management of hiatal hernia complicated by shortened oesophagus and oesophageal stricture. A modification of this procedure using 180 degree fundoplication and the transthoracic-transdiaphragmatic approach is described.
