Preliminary results of the laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding procedure by a new generation of silicone band : MIDBAND

BACKGROUND: The surgical treatment of morbid obesity by laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding has become a "gold standard" in Europe. Currently, five types of silicone bands are used in the majority of countries performing bariatric surgery.

METHODS: The MIDBAND was introduced to the European market in 2000. It is placed around the stomach using the Pars Flaccida technique described by Forsell. A prospective multicentric study on 113 cases was carried out to evaluate technical feasibility, complications, and the midterm weight loss outcomes (2 years).

RESULTS: The percentage of excess body weight loss was 52.58% at 2 years. Perioperative mortality was nil and the complication rate was low (slippage <2%).

CONCLUSION: These encouraging results require longer-term studies to validate this procedure.
