CONT

Cerclage gastrique ajustable par laparoscopie : Il consiste à mettre en place sous anesthésie générale un anneau gonflable autour de l'estomac, relié par un cathéter à un réservoir sous-cutané(permettant d’actionner un resserrage post-opératoire ou inversement). Cette technique ne requiert ni agrafage, ni anastomose digestive, d’où la simplicité du geste et une réversibilité totale. L'abord par voie laparoscopique évite une grande incision de l'abdomen(et donc le risque d’abcès ou d’éventration).
