Is a revision more risky than the first WLS?

My WLS doctor told me that a revision had a much higher risk for death than the first WLS due to the "extra stomach" now being attached to other vital organs. He stated that this made the revision much more dangerous. Has anyone heard this before or does anyone have information regarding this?
