» Sectioning consists 80% of the stomach.
» Gastric Tube.
» Functional pylorus.
» Technically simpler than the bypass.
» Reduces the possibility of gaps.
» Decreases secretion of Grhelina.
» Induces early satiety.
» Laparoscopic Approach.
» Upon being sectioned and stapled there is possibility of leakage through the staple line.
» Initial experience.
» The stomach will grow.
It is a purely restrictive surgical procedure, in which a ring is placed around the top of the stomach, with the possibility of adjustment. To regulate and hinder the passage of food making the patient feel full to stop eating.
» No cutting of the stomach.
» Calibrated size pouch and stoma.
» It can be adjusted to the needs of the patient.

» Fully reversible.
» Short stay in the hospital (not exceeding 48 hours).
» It requires discipline to achieve weight loss.
» Restricting some foods.
» Requires adjustments.
» No drinking beverages high in calories.

» Anastomosis leak.
» Longer hospital stay.
» Requires permanent intake of vitamin supplements and calcium.
» Diarrhea post qx 1-3%.
It is a technique that produces the same gastric restriction as the gastric sleeve, but unlike this one, it does not require removing a portion of the stomach, but the stomach is plicated in the stomach by stitches on it without cutting, which avoids risks leakage and bleeding from the cut line of staples.
» Decreased operative time.
» Drastic reduction in the risk of gastric fistulas or leaks.
» Drastic reduction of the risk of gastric bleeding.
» Lower cost of the procedure as staples are not used.

Procedure in which the gallbladder is removed usually by the presence of stones (calculi) and inflammation, the disease is usually present in patients with these characteristics: Women, people with obesity, age 40 and women with several children, although currently these presentations are changing and to associate the presence of childhood obesity in which it is found in younger people and in men.

For the diagnosis it is necessary to conduct several studies such as endoscopy, esofagogastroduoneal series (increasingly used some indications less safe) manometry and pH monitoring recent studies increasingly used. The surgery is performed through minimally invasive surgery or laparoscopic surgery with making small incisions through which instruments and camera work to be performed safely introduced, surgery is the embodiment of a valve with a portion of the stomach called the fundus gastric with which surrounds the distal portion of the esophagus to serve this barrier which prevents acids and stomach contents back, this is considered advanced laparoscopic surgery because of the complexity in the art to which sebe carried out by a fully trained in these procedures medical equipment.
