Revisional Gastric Banding
What Is Revisional Gastric Banding?
Patients who previously had Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding (LAGB) can have a revisional (correction) surgery in case they have a weight regain or reflux after primary surgery.
How It Works
LAGB can be revised by doing all types of Gastric Bypass surgery or Sleeve Gastrectomy (less recommended).
