Official title
Weight Loss & CoMorbidity Resolution With Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Band Alone vs. Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Band With Gastric Plication
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate whether combining laparoscopic adjustable gastric band (AKA: lap-band surgery, LAGB) and laparoscopic gastric plication (making tucks in the large curve of the stomach with stitches) to lap-band surgery alone will result in a greater loss of excess weight over time. We anticipate that the average percent of excess body weight loss for study subjects will exceed 29% at 12 months.
