Laparascopic Gastropexy

There are cases when gastropexy or partial fundoplication is needed. Gastropexy is the surgical fixation of the stomach. Mostly it is the fixation of the abdominal wall with the aim of preventing acid reflux. Gastropexy is beneficial. First of all, it is not as expensive as other surgical procedures. Gastropexy is a minimally invasive surgery. It is performed with the help of the scope that is inserted into the belly cavity. The incision made by the surgeon is tiny (1 1/2 inches). As a result after the operation a patient has no scars. The surgeon performs it within an hour, and then on the very same day a patient may return home if he doesn�t have complications. During the procedure a patient is under anesthesia. The anesthesia is not as strong as for other operations. And it is a great advantage for those who suffer from allergic reactions and heart attacks. Most patients say that they recovered and returned to their normal life very quickly. There are practically no cases of side effects. Although Gastropexy seems to be quite insignificant, it prevents a life-threatening twist of stomach.
