Synopsis

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The laparoscopic adjustable gastric band, better known as the lap band, is a branch of weight-loss surgeries, aiming to treat obesity, when other easier weight-loss methods have failed. The lap band consists of a silicone device, that via laparoscopic surgery is positioned around the upper part of the stomach, helping the patient to cope with the obesity by reducing excess body fat. According to a research conducted in the US, the adjustable gastric band showed some improvements in patients with extra-weight – 80% weight-loss efficiency in some cases. Learn more about the lap band, its history and post-surgical effectiveness in this book.
