What is a stapled stomach?!


Question:

What is a stapled stomach?

Ive heard people talk about and i like to know what exactly does it mean?


Answers:

Stomach stapling is the precursor to Bariatric Surgery. It involves separating the stomach into two sections and is meant to limit stomach size and therefore how much you can eat. The problem with all surgeries of this kind is that the stomach is made of muscle which can stretch over time. So anyone who has this must continue to watch how much they eat.
