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

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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.

Vertical Banded Gastroplasty for Obesity

Archives of Surgery, 1982
Vertical banded gastroplasty combines the best that has been learned about gastric reduction operations with another feature: a window through both walls of the stomach just above the crow's foot and next to the outlet along the lesser curvature. This window allows the application of staples up to the His' angle to create a small pouch (less than 50 mL)

Laparoscopic vertical banded gastroplasty

Current Surgery, 2003
The technique for laparoscopic vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG) arose from the open procedure in 1993, as minimally invasive surgical approaches were applied to virtually all commonly performed operations (1,2). In 1992 approximately 85% of bariatric surgeons utilized an open VBG as ddescribed by Mason at the University of Iowa, and the initial ...

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.

[Laparoscopic horizontal gastroplasty].

Khirurgiia, 1999
The analysis of the first 14 operations of horizontal gastroplasty in patients with end-stage alimentary constitutional obesity was carried out, the operations being performed according to standard (9 patients) as well as laparoscopic method (5 patients). The mean body mass made up 133.6 kg, the mean height being 167.8 cm.
