About
Lap Band Surgery. Using minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques, this procedure involves placing a
silicone band around the upper part of the stomach. A small balloon is inflated which cinches around the
stomach, reducing feelings of hunger and decreasing a patient’s capacity to eat large amounts.
Dr.Terushkin’s expertise in laparoscopic techniques and our team’s dedication to support before, during,
and after surgeries has resulted in our patients losing an average of 40–50% of their excess weight after
completing Lap Band surgery at our facilities.
Lap Band. Gastric Banding also known as the LAP-BAND was approved in 2001 by the FDA. The silicone
band is placed around the upper part of the stomach. It has an inflatable balloon that cinches around the
stomach and allows patients to be less hungry and to eat less at each meal. The band is inflated with
saline using a needle that goes thru the skin into the band port. The port is secured under the skin so
that nothing is visible. Percent of excess weight loss at five years is 50-55%. Follow-up is crucial with the
band as adjustments are usually necessary the first year and sometimes in the second year as well.
In Dr.Terushkin’s hands, complications are decreased and less than the national average, but they still
can occur. Lap Band patients can count on top bariatric surgeon Dr.Terushkin’s extensive experience.
Dr.Terushkin has performed numerous adjustable gastric banding surgeries.
