Laparoscopic Vertical
Banded Gastroplasty (Mac Lean) Surgery
This procedure can be either Laparoscopic or open. The MacLean
method is one of the most stable and effective procedures for long-term weight loss.
MacLean Surgery sections off a small portion of the stomach to restrict food intake.
A small outlet is left at the bottom of the stomach. Since the outlet is small,
food stays in the pouch longer and you also feel full for a longer time.
It is a trouble free procedure that requires little aftercare and
maintenance. Once “fitted” it can be forgotten and the candidate has
a easier time loosing weight.
