Gastric Banding, often referred to as Lap Band Surgery, is a weight-loss intervention that is considered minimally invasive. This procedure helps patients struggling with obesity achieve long-term weight loss. The surgery involves placing a silicone band around the top of the stomach to create a small pouch, which restricts food intake and produces a sensation of fullness.
The silicone band can be adjusted for tightness via a small port beneath the skin, providing the patient with a method to maintain targeted weight management. The procedure is performed through small incisions, resulting in minimal pain, lower scarring, and a faster recovery. This procedure can help in improving health, mobility, and quality of life when combined with diet, exercise, and medical follow-up for patients with a BMI of 35 or higher (or 30 in the presence of obesity-related medical conditions). The Gastric Banding procedure is available at IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele in Italy.
