Endoscopic Stomach and Pouch Reduction in Patients With Weight Regain Following Roux-En-Y Bypass Surgery I found this study and was wondering if anyone else knows about this study or has gone through it before? I am wanting a revision and I found this study on the clinical studies.gov website.  I have no insurance so I figured this would be the only way to get this type of surgery. Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks Tami

Check with Dr. Pirrello's office. I believe he told me they were going to offer that.  I believe it has something to do with fixing the stoma that stretches and that is why the stomach empty's so quickly, thus being hungry and eating, which of course results in gaining weight.

Made it to ONDERLAND!!!!!!!

I know Southeast Bariatrics has something new for revisions and I have heard CMC Bariatrics did something about a revision but it's was a reduction. I would for sure call around to all the surgeons in the area.
