Why Bariatric Revision Surgery is Needed

Treating obesity is like dealing with any other illness or diseases. One treatment may not always be enough to achieve the result you want. And Bariatric revision surgery is a treatment that can help you attain your weight loss goals. Be Slim Bariatrics will help you on your weight loss journey by determining which type of revision surgery is best for you.

Bariatric revision surgery in Tijuana is done in three situations:

  • To convert from one bariatric surgery procedure to another
  • To resolve complications
  • When patients don’t get sufficient weight loss.
Consider the following factors if you recently underwent gastric sleeve surgery and aren't getting the results you want:
  • Surgical challenges like leaks or slipped gastric band, or
  • Medical challenges like difficulty in absorbing vitamins and minerals, ulcers, or scar tissue. Revision surgery may be the solution to resolving such problems.
Cases of bariatric surgery re-operations in patients are as follows:
  • 6-20% of gastric sleeve patients
  • 15-35% of gastric bypass patients
  • 10-60% of adjustable gastric band patients
  • 30% of vertical banded gastroplasty patients
  • 50% of gastric balloon patients

Bariatric Revision Surgery in Tijuana

It is noted that patients’ bodies react differently to pouch enlargement or lower caloric intake. The body’s reaction can hinder the body from losing the desired weight. A gastric sleeve revision is considered in this case. Moreover, the gastric sleeve may be converted to a
mini bypass, RNY bypass, re-sleeve or duodenal sleeve to reduce more weight.

How Bariatric
Revisions Work

A gastric bypass revision can be done if a patient loses too much weight or corrects complications resulting from the first. A gastric bypass (RNY) can fail due to pouch enlargement, stoma enlargement, the inability of the body to adapt to low caloric intake or disruption of the staple line. During the revision, the stoma shrinks by injecting a sclerosant which reduces the pouch size. A gastric bypass revision can be used to conduct a distill bypass and lap band surgery. However, this procedure has a lower success rate and may result in more complications

How Adjustable Gastric Banding (Lap-Band) Revisions Work

Lap-band may not be compatible for some patients due to pouch enlargement, erosion, slippage, or poor adjustments. Well, this can be corrected by re-adjusting lap-band placement. Alternatively, gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, and duodenal switch are more effective revision surgeries.
