Revisional Surgery

It is applied to patients who have undergone surgery due to obesity, who have not been able to lose enough weight or have lost and recovered it.

It also applies to patients with diabetes or hypertension, who do not improve enough with surgery to weight loss.

 This new surgery, which is done in case of a complication related to the previous operation, is called revision surgery.

Typically, patients who had gastric banding many years ago now need revision surgery.

The operations performed in revision surgery usually combine the first operation with a different technique. In other cases, the same technique can be performed a second time.
