Understanding Revisional Gastric Plication for Improved Health

Are you considering revisional gastric plication due to weight regain or reflux following a primary Laparoscopic Gastric Plication (GP) surgery? Here's what you need to know.

How Revisional Gastric Plication Works

After having Laparoscopic Gastric Plication, patients experiencing weight regain or reflux may opt for revisional (corrective) surgery. This revision can involve various approaches, including:

• Gastric Bypass Surgery: A procedure that creates a smaller stomach pouch and reroutes the intestines to aid in weight management.

• Sleeve Gastrectomy: While less favored, this procedure involves removing a portion of the stomach to achieve weight loss.
