About Gastric Plication Dr. E. Mena del Rio, the Model Hospital in A Coruña says
The laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy a technique that has proved effective in the treatment of obesity in the last 10 years. Look while it is a technique with less complications than gastric bypass. Yet there remains a small percentage of around 1% of fistulae and bleeding in the staple line in some cases lead to another operation and can be difficult to treat.
gastric plication is a technique that produces the same restriction vertical gastrectomy gastric but unlike the latter does not require removing a portion of the stomach but the stomach invaginates upon itself without cutting thus avoiding risks Leakage and bleeding from the cut line of staples.

The surgical technique is to free the greater curvature of stomach (in the same way as is done in the vertical gastrectomy) and once released, will instead proceed to the section of stomach, you do is folding the stomach on itself following 2 lines of suture. The first suture line is performed with interrupted sutures of nonabsorbable material and the second suture is also a continuous suture of nonabsorbable material.
Advantages of this procedure
.- drastic decline the risk of gastric fistula or leak.
.- Drastic reduction in the risk of gastric bleeding.
.- Lower cost of the procedure and no endocortadoras use machines.
