ANY transected pouches ever require revision?

I have been noticing a lot of references to revisions and the transecting/stapling controversy lately. I was just wondering if anyone has ever known ANYONE who required a revision after a transected RNY? If so, what do they do? My first thought is they must make the pouch small again? I am 6 months post op and it seems like my appetitie switch has been turned on. A little worried about stretching my pouch. And then was wondering if I did, what could be done to fix it? Anything? Or is it even possible to require a revision (regain weight)with a transected pouch? Just curious...
