Surgical Endoscopy, 04/07/09
Hindle AK et al. - The unique data show no significant correlation between a patient’s BMI and weight and the measurements of the gastric cardia. There was a correlation between a patient’s height and the posterior diameter of the gastric cardia. These intraoperative measurements may help surgeons objectively select the appropriate band for each respective patient undergoing LAGB surgery. This may potentially decrease postoperative dysphagia.
