Sumario: | INTRODUCTION: Bariatric surgery is a rapidly growing field with trends and standards of care changing more rapidly than most. Gastric plication was once an exciting novel procedure which showed promise, however it has fallen out of favor for other procedures such as the sleeve gastrectomy. Existing literature on the surgical conversion of a gastric plication to a sleeve gastrectomy does not provide specific details on the operative technique of this rarely encountered operation. CASE REPORT: In this case report we describe a morbidly obese female who presented weight gain after laparoscopic gastric plication and gastric banding. We provide the operative technique involved in conversion to a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. CONCLUSION: This case provides specific operative technique with detailed media for the conversion of gastric plication to LSG. |
