Laparoscopic Banding Surgery In India

 

Laparoscopic Gastric Banding ( Obesity Surgery ) / Lap-Band Surgery

The LAP-BAND is an Adjustable Gastric Banding System that causes weight loss by restricting the amount of food that can be consumed.....

 

What Is a Lap-Band ?

 "Lap-Band System" is the brand name of the adjustable gastric band used in the procedure. Most simply, a Lap-Band is a silicone belt that goes around the top of the stomach. This results in the ability to control your hunger and achieve a "feeling of fullness," or satiety. Ultimately, you eat much less and should feel full sooner.....

 

Who Are Candidates for the Lap-Band System?

The requirements for Lap-Band surgery are the same as for any other weight loss surgery. These criteria were originally set in the early 1990s and have not changed. If your BMI, or body mass index, is between 35 and 39, then you must also have associated severe medical problems, or co-morbid conditions, in order to be a candidate for the Lap-Band.....

 

Procedure

The lap band is considered a "restrictive operation." This operation is performed laparoscopically which means five to six small incisions are made to insert a small camera and tools needed to perform the operation.......

 

Like a wristwatch, the band is fastened around the upper stomach to create a new, tiny stomach pouch that limits and controls the amount of food one can eat. It also creates a small outlet that slows the emptying process into the stomach and the intestines. As a result, patients experience an earlier sensation of fullness and are satisfied with smaller amounts of food; this results in weight loss......

 

How does laparoscopic gastric banding work?

The laparoscopic gastric band restricts the amount of food that can be eaten Attached to the gastric band is a port which is placed just under the skin. The port can be accessed with a needle to inflate or deflate the gastric band after surgery.....

 

After Lap-Band Surgery: Recovery and Aftercare

Following surgery, you should be able to return to work within a week, with minimal discomfort. You will need to follow a nutrition plan (which may include vitamin supplements) prescribed by your surgeon and/or nutritionist. The nutrition plan will likely include a liquid diet for a few weeks, until you can tolerate soft foods, and later solid foods.....

 

Advantages

• No cutting of the stomach
• No stapling of the stomach
• Calibrated pouch and stoma size
• Can be adjusted to patient's needs after surgery with no operation to adjust the stoma....

 

Disadvantages

• food bolus obstruction.....

 

Lap-Band System Complications

Laparoscopic surgery is not always possible. Your surgeon may need to use an "open" method. Other problems can occur that are directly related to the Lap-Band System : -

• The band can spontaneously deflate because of leakage. That leakage can come from the band, the reservoir, or the tubing that connects them.
• The stomach pouch can enlarge.....

How do you permanently get rid of the smell of a leather band on a wristwatch?

Good quality leather will smell quite strong for several years really. Murphys oil might help some though.
