Just curious as to where the incision is exactly. I mean is it above or below the belly button? and also how long is it usually.

Here's a better question...why would you have an open RNY? The answer is it usually goes from just above the belly button up the the sternum, or breastbone. Dr. C The Deaconess Surgical Weight Loss Center Cincinnati, Ohio (513) 559-2545
