 My surgeon said that it would take 3-4 hours, but b/c I had so many issues, it wound up taking up 7 hours. How he did it lap and and did not convert it to open, I will never know.

We have the same doctor.  What type of revision did you have? I had lapband to the sleeve and it was 3 hours due to a lot of scar tissue.

Band to sleeve, 1.5 hours.

The band got me to goal, the sleeve will keep me there.

RNY to DS, with complications (excised a ring out of the stoma, adhesions, partial bowel obstruction) and it was close to 5 hrs.

Keep in mind that I've had so many abdominal surgeries in my life that I no longer have a belly button. I also had lots of scar tissue and adhesions.
Rny revised to distal rny - 8 hours (Dr Upahdyay, forgot how to spell it)
distal rny revised to ds and gallbladder removal - 11 hours (Dr Rabkin)
 

WHEN LIFE KNOCKS YOU DOWN TO YOUR knees, JUST REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE IN THE PERFECT POSITION TO PRAY. HW 395, RNY 4/2/07 345, Lowest Weight 248,  Revision to Distal RNY 1/13/09 278,Revision to DS 10/15/10

Open VBG to RNY for me was 5.5 hours and was said to have gone better than expected.
