Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy is a new procedure for weight loss, suited to patients at highest risk for surgery, either because of their medical co-morbidities or their weight. The Sleeve Gastrectomy is a first-stage, lower-risk surgical alternative that serves as a bridge to other bariatric operations. As a patient loses weight (over a 6-18 month period), their risk for subsequent surgery decreases. At the appropriate time, they can be safely offered a second-stage operation, either gastric bypass or duodenal switch.

This DVD includes two "minimally edited" Sleeve Gastrectomy cases, performed and narrated by Michel Gagner, MD.
