Rescue Surgery
In the event of a problem following an operation such as a ring, sleeve or bypass, there are surgical solutions :
“ I have a ring but I’m gaining weight ”
Removal of the band and conversion to gastric bypass is possible 9 times out of 10 during the same procedure.
“ I have a sleeve, I gain weight and I have reflux ”
The conversion of the sleeve into a by-pass is always possible.
“ I have a Roux-en-Y Bypass and I gain weight back ”
The intestinal circuit can be lengthened to increase malabsorption.
“ J’ai un by-pass et je n’en veux plus ”
The by-pass can be removed to restore the original anatomy.
“ I have an omega bypass (mini bypass) and I have reflux ”
The Omega by-pass can be transformed into a Y by-pass
“ I have a sleeve and I haven’t lost any weight ”
The conversion of the sleeve into a by-pass with pocket reduction is possible.
