Resuturing of Stomach in Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty 8 Months After Original Procedure.


ABSTRACT: Endoluminal treatments such as endoscopic gastroplasty have been gaining ground in obesity treatment. A 52-year-old woman gained weight 5 months after endoscopic gastroplasty. Thus, it was decided to resuture the greater curvature of the stomach 8 months after the initial procedure by reducing the gastric pouch even further. The patient lost 16% of her total body weight with this procedure. Endoscopic gastroplasty, which can be reperformed in patients who regain weight, reach a plateau, or do not achieve the initial planned weight loss, is an effective and safe first-line obesity treatment.
