Surgical Technique Plication of the stomach • Where to start, proximal to distal or distal to proximal? • One, two or three suture planes?. • What are the ideal suture material(s) for each plane? • Size bougie and calibration?
Laplace’s Law The tension on the wall of a sphere is the product of the pressure times the radius of the chamber and the tension is inversely related to the thickness of the wall. Ortiz-Lagardere, IFSO 2011
The learning curve Ortiz-Lagardere, IFSO 2011 Aug. 2010- Feb. 2011 150 Plication (18 revision) • Surg. Time: 54 minutes • Hospital stay: 28 hr. • Mortality 0% • Complication • Early 5% • Postoperative nausea and or vomiting 34% • 5 Re-operation for obstruction • 24 Re-plication Mar. 2011-Jul 2011 250 Plication (5 revision) • Surg. time: 37 minutes • Hospital stay: 21 hr. • Mortality 0% • Complication • Early 1% • Postoperative nausea and or vomiting 7% • 1 reoperation for obstruction

Conclusions • Still experimental • Requires standardization of technique • Requires long term follow-up • Study mechanisms Ortiz-Lagardere, MISS 2012
Conclusions • Low complication rate • Acceptable short term weight-loss • Long learning curve • Surgeon dependent • Patient acceptance Ortiz-Lagardere, MISS 2012
