Latest Revision Option
for
Gastric Bypass
with
Dilated Outflows
We continue to be at the forefront of minimally invasive Revision options for patients who have had a prior gastric bypass and have developed a dilated gastrojejunostomy.

Recently, we identified a novel technique for externally narrowing the outflow laparoscopically.  We have gradually improved a technique that could be offered to selected patients. 

If you are one of the patients waiting for sclerotherapy, we could consider this option.  Will probably need to call and make an appointment.

In brief, we externally stitch the opening closed with permanent stitches in a circular technique.
