Revisional Surgery

Learn how revisional gastric surgery may be necessary to correct or modify a previous weight-loss surgery.

Revisional Surgery Overview

Revisional gastric surgery is a corrective or secondary weight loss surgery performed on people who have previously undergone weight-loss surgery. Revisional gastric surgery may be necessary if the original surgery, such as a gastric band, sleeve gastrectomy, or gastric bypass, failed to achieve the desired results or led to complications like severe acid reflux, pouch dilation, ulcers, or anatomical problems. Common revisional procedures include removing or converting a gastric band, revising a gastric sleeve into a gastric bypass, or adjusting a gastric bypass to improve its effectiveness.

Revisional gastric surgery aims to restore or improve weight loss outcomes, resolve related medical issues, and enhance the patient’s overall health and quality of life.
