The insertion of a gastric band, also called modular band gastroplasty, is a reversible method used in bariatric surgery.
During this surgery, a band would be placed around the upper part of the stomach to reduce its size. As a result, the stomach would fill up faster, and that would give the patient a feeling of satiety. The gastric band would be connected, by a small canal, to a control box which would be placed under the skin. This box would allow the doctor to tighten or loosen the gastric band if necessary.
The advantages of the gastric band surgery are:
During the first week, minced or mashed food would be allowed, such as mashed potatoes, compotes and thick soups.
Starting from the second week, it would be possible to eat a little more substantial foods such as cooked vegetables.
Starting from the fourth postoperative week, you would be allowed to eat small amounts of every type of food.
It is important to note that you will need to eat in small portions, and to chew the food very slowly before swallowing it.
Pregnancy is not contraindicated for women who have a gastric band around the stomach. However, it is necessary to consult the doctor in case of abdominal pain during pregnancy, regardless of its intensity.
The success rate of gastric band surgery is 85%.
