Endoscopic gastroplication

Endoscopic gastroplication is a minimally invasive bariatric procedure that allows you to reduce the volume of the stomach without surgical incisions and without removing any part of it.

Features

• Refers to minimally invasive bariatric surgery.
• The essence of the method is the creation of a "sleeve–like" stomach by applying internal sutures to the wall of the organ.
• The stomach tissues are not removed, the operation does not require external incisions and leaves the anterior abdominal wall intact.

Indications for intraluminal gastroplication

• Body mass index (BMI) — 30-40 kg/m2.
• BMI>40 as a preparatory stage before surgical treatment.
• In case of impossibility of performing a large invasive intervention due to the severity of concomitant somatic pathology.
• Ineffectiveness of diet and exercise for a long time.

Contraindications

• Acute diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and peptic ulcer in the acute stage.
• Large hernia of the esophageal orifice of the diaphragm.
• Pregnancy and breastfeeding.
• Blood clotting disorders.
• Malignant neoplasms.
