About Gastric Plication

Nowadays, the rate of obesity and its problems and illnesses is increasing, so the issue of weight loss has become more and more important. Although the best way to lose weight is to have a proper diet and exercise, sometimes the obesity problem is very serious, which is not easily resolvable, and other methods, such as surgery can be considered. Gastric plication is a relatively new, minimally invasive method for treating patients with obesity. It reduces the size of the stomach capacity to approximately three ounces. Following the good results and confirmation of reliable centers such as Cleveland, it was introduced as bariatric surgery for complicated obese patients among patients and surgeons. In this surgery, there is no implanted device, unlike the gastric band, and no removal or bypassing, so this surgery is less invasive and reversible. It is cheaper than other bariatric surgeries.

Recommended for:

The patients whose BMI is above 30
Patients older than 18 years old
Patients must be willing to make major changes in their eating habits and lifestyle

Before Gastric Plication

A patient must feel free to ask all kinds of questions about the surgery process and the results. They should tell the doctor their medical history and allergies, as well as medicines and supplements intake. The surgeon may ask to stop some medicines such as blood thinning and painkillers like ibuprofen some weeks before the surgery. They should do some lab tests and physical exams. If the patient is a smoker, it is essential to stop it 4 to 6 weeks prior to the surgery, and it is recommended to start a diet to reduce 5-10% of excess weight before surgery because it helps to lose weight faster after surgery.

During Gastric Plication

Gastric plication surgery is done under general anesthesia and often is performed as a laparoscopic operation. The surgeon will make some incisions on the abdomen to insert the camera and instruments. Then he or she will make one or two folds in the stomach, and as a result, the stomach volume decreases by approximately 70%.

Recovery

Patients feel pain after the anesthesia is gone, so they need painkillers. In the first phase, the patient can only drink water, milk, and natural juices, a maximum of 50 ccs with 15-minute spacing. The second phase is removing any sugar and adding grains, legumes, and starchy materials which are full of proteins and vitamins as in soup. Natural juices are changed to pureed fruits to make the stomach familiar with hard foods. In the third phase, which is the last phase before ordinary meals, instead of drinking milk and soup patients can eat yogurt and the contents of soup, also they can also eat natural fruits. The last phase includes only limiting the food portion volume. They should prevent high-calorie foods like carbohydrates and fats and change their lifestyle and diet to vegetables, fruits, and healthy foods. It is recommended to start jogging from the second month after surgery for at least an hour a day.
