Laparoscopic gastric banding is surgery performed for weight loss. In this procedure a band is placed around the upper part of the stomach which leaves a small pouch for holding the food. The band decreases the amount of food you eat by making you feel full after eating small amounts of food. Laparoscopic gastric banding is used to treat severe obesity, which is intern related to type 2 diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, and arthritis. It is performed for people who have tried other weight loss plans without long term results. By the weight reduction process through gastric banding one can get rid of the obesity related problems like high cholesterol, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and diseases of the heart and lungs. Laparoscopic gastric banding may help one to live longer if he didn’t get change in other weight loss procedures. After surgery, the band can be adjusted to make food pass slower or faster through your stomach. Patient will be given general anesthesia before surgery. The surgery is performed by using a tiny camera that is placed in belly. This type of surgery is called laparoscopy. The camera is known as laparoscope. It allows the surgeon to see inside your belly. In this surgery the surgeon will make 1 - 5 small surgical sutures in abdomen. Through these small sutures, the surgeon will place a camera and the instruments needed to perform the surgery. The surgeon lays a band around the upper part of the stomach which separates it from the lower part. This creates a small pouch which is having a narrow opening that goes to lower part of your stomach. The surgery does not involve any cutting or stapling inside the patient’s belly. The surgery may take only 30 - 60 minutes if the surgeon has done a lot of these procedures. When patient eat after having this surgery, the small pouch will fill up faster and feels full after eating just a little amount of food. The food in the small upper pouch will slowly empty into the main part of stomach. Weight-loss surgery may increase your risk for gallstones. It is suggested to remove gall bladder before surgery.

ConferenceSeries likewise composes 300 International events every year around the globe, where exchange of researches and ideas happens through level headed discussions, round table discourses, publication presentations, workshops, symposia and exhibitions. OMICS International sorts out Science Congress, World Summits, and International science meetings in USA, Australia, India, Dubai, and Europe. ConferenceSeries Journals energizes unique and good research articles for publication. All the articles sorted for publications are subjected to a peer review. After consolidating the progressions the articles are given to publication. Once sanction for publication, these articles stay chronicled for all time in their separate archives.
