Gut, 2020
Objective Endoscopic suture gastroplasty (ESG) has been developed as an alternative treatment for moderately obese patients. We present our results of a short-term randomised controlled trial on a new suturing technique, the Endomina system (E-ESG, Endo ...

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2001
VBG and vertical Silastic ring gastroplasty are simple gastric restriction procedures that have defined technical standards. Two recent improvements in the operation have been the development of the six-row endolinear cutting-stapling instrument that divides the vertical partition without an increase in GI leakage and the application of minimally ...

Gastroplasty in Morbid Obesity
Surgical Clinics of North America, 1979Gastroplasty is effective only when a small fundic reservoir is formed with a nonexpanding 12-mm channel. Support of the channel with a seromuscular suture appears to achieve this goal. Candidates for gastroplasty should be carefully screened before surgery and given support and nutritional education after surgery.

Robotic Approach for Collis Gastroplasty
Cirugía Española (English Edition), 2020The true short esophagus is an entity of controversy among surgeons. Studies have been published about its diagnosis and laparoscopic treatment, without existing to date, publication of the treatment with robotic approach. We present, as a case report, our experience in robotic surgery for hiatal hernia with true short esophagus treated with Collis ...

Standardized gastroplasty orifice
The American Journal of Surgery, 1981Consistent weight reduction by gastroplasty requires precise construction of an appropriately sized stoma that will not dilate. The technique described constructs such a stoma around a 32 French Hurst dilator with an external ring of Silastic tubing over polypropylene suture.

Critical appraisal of horizontal gastroplasty
The American Journal of Surgery, 1987We evaluated 77 consecutive patients who had undergone horizontal gastroplasty over a 2 year period. Mean follow-up was 26 months (88 percent of patients) and ranged from 15 to 45 months. There were no operative deaths. Early complications were common.

Obesity Surgery, 1995
BACKGROUND: Long-term changes of gastric mucosa following surgery for morbid obesity have never been studied, to the best of our knowledge. As 31 patients in our series presented with various gastrointestinal complaints following surgery, we used this opportunity to study mucosal changes.

Videolaparoscopic Vertical Banded Gastroplasty
Obesity Surgery, 1995BACKGROUND: In June 1993, the authors started performing the Vertical Banded Gastroplasty (VBG) via laparoscopy. METHODS: Since June 1993, 25 patients have undergone laparoscopic VBG. RESULTS: Weight loss did not differ from the traditional open VBG. CONCLUSIONS: The laparoscopic procedure, which can be performed simply, permits minimal trauma compared
