37 LAPAROSCOPIC ADJUSTABLE GASTRIC BANDING HISTORY Belachew, 1st laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding operation approved in the US by the FDA Current - 25% of bariatric procedures performed

38 LAPAROSCOPIC ADJUSTABLE GASTRIC BANDING OUTCOMES up to 50% weight loss in 24 months up 25% fail to lose weight within 5 years type II DM improved in up to 90%, medications eliminated in 64% inferior to roux-en-y gastric bypass in overall weight loss superior in morbidity and mortality

39 LAPAROSCOPIC ADJUSTABLE GASTRIC BANDING SURGERY pars flaccida approach retrogastric tunnel pars flaccida medially angle of His laterally decreased rate of band slippage more extraneous tissue (lesser curvature fat pad) incorporated into the band

40 LAPAROSCOPIC ADJUSTABLE GASTRIC BANDING SURGERY peroral calibration balloon placed fill to cc of saline band fastened below this level create cc pouch

41

42 LAPAROSCOPIC ADJUSTABLE GASTRIC BANDING POST-OPERATIVE CARE AND FOLLOW- UP exercise and diet progression plan band adjustments - band restriction by adding fluid <2 lb wt loss wk easily eat solid foods, little satiety, pronounced appetite over 2 year period

43 LAPAROSCOPIC ADJUSTABLE GASTRIC BANDING COMPLICATIONS pouch enlargement band slippage port-site infections port breakage band erosion

44 COMPLICATIONS POUCH ENLARGEMENT dilation of the proximal gastric pouch with or without change in the angle of the band no signs of obstruction seen with band overinflation or overeating sx - lack of satiety, heartburn, regurgitation, chest pain tx - band deflation, low-calorie diet, portion control

45 COMPLICATIONS BAND SLIPPAGE cephalad prolapse of the stomach or caudad movement of the band 2º insufficient anterior fixation or pressure in the pouch sx - dysphagia, vomiting, regurgitation. food intolerance necrosis, perforation, UGIB, aspiration tx - require operative intervention, removal/repositioning of the band

46 COMPLICATIONS PORT SITE infection - erythema, pain, edema tx - antibiotics, removal of port leakage damaged port septum or tubing loss of the injected fluid volume, loss of restriction local exploration, port replacement

47 COMPLICATIONS BAND EROSION rare gastric-wall injury or tight anterior fixation most patients are asymptomatic epigastric pain; sepsis, bleeding weight gain, multiple band adjustments, port infection tx - complete removal of the eroded gastric band

48 COMPLICATIONS BLEEDING 2º to migration/erosion; rare chronic ischemia 2º pressure chronic inflammation 2º reaction to silicon gastric band case reports regular follow-up - gastroscopy, barium swallow

49 COMPLICATIONS reoperation rate 36.5% repositioning 5.4 replacement 6.2 port related 13.9 band removal 10.0 conversion to other bariatric procedure 10.2

50 LAPAROSCOPIC ADJUSTABLE GASTRIC BANDING SUMMARY profound weight loss and improvement of metabolic derangements are possible with LAGB LAGB is a safe and reversible procedure re-operation rates are high close post-operative follow-up is paramount
