The procedure: The name Lap-Band comes from Laparoscopic Gastric Band. Laparoscopy is the surgical technique used to place the band. With Laparoscopy the surgeon makes a few incisions in the abdominal wall and inserts narrow, hollow tubes. Extremely small and thin instruments are then passed through the tubes. The instruments include a microscopic camera that sends video to a monitor that is used by the surgeon to see inside the abdomen. This technique is the least invasive of all weight loss surgeries and has the least risk of complications. Once the instruments are in place, a small tunnel is made behind the top of the stomach. The band is then pulled around the stomach to form a ring. This ring is then locked holding securely the band in a circle around the stomach. There are many advantages of the Laparoscopy over an open surgery where a larger incision is required.
