When a patient needs to undergo Reversal of Stomach Reduction Surgery, our main objective is to return the patient’s reduced stomach to normal size, so that he can return to eating normally, and rebuild the intestinal tract so that nutrient absorption returns to normal.
In the Stomach Reduction surgery, the stomach is reduced to a size of approximately 30 ml, and in some cases, a ring is placed around this stomach to prevent the dilation of this small stomach and prevent the patient from being able to feed in large quantities.
The rest of the stomach (big stomach) is isolated along with a part of the intestine called DUODENUM not allowing the passage of food. Generally, after Bariatric Surgery Reversal, the patient will return to eating normally without vomiting.
Complications
Gastrojejunal Anastomosis Fistula:
One of the most feared and difficult complications to diagnose is the Gastrojejunal Anastomosis Fistula. At first, the patient may only have tachycardia and, later, dyspnea and pleural effusion. The last thing to look out for is peritonitis.
Hematoma-Seroma of the Incision
Hematoma-Seroma of the Incision can be minimized by exhaustive washing of the surgical wound and approximation of the subcutaneous tissue.
Incisional hernia
In general, Incisional Hernia is not accompanied by pain and its main symptom is a bulge in the operated region. Pain and discomfort may also appear when the person performs movements that require abdominal strength.
