None of the early complications were the expected because the doctor caused a gastric leak, and tried to cover it up. 3 surgeries in three weeks.. and in the third.. he had another surgeon slit my throat and divert my esophagus out my neck -NOT a normal procedure. Vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG), introduced by Mason in 1982, is now discarded because of important long-term complications and technical difficulties to do revisional surgery. The rate of reintervention is high. Long-term complication can be severe, especially with gastric stenosis that could lead to esophageal cancer. A second reintervention could be technically demanding, especially by laparoscopy, and the patients should be referred to a specialized center.
