Sa1933 ENDOSCOPIC SLEEVE GASTROPLASTY IN THE MANAGEMENT OF WEIGHT REGAIN AFTER SLEEVE GASTRECTOMY

Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has become a well-standardized surgical treatment option for obesity. However, the rate of weight regain (WR) after SG in long-term follow-up is relatively high. This multicenter study is the first to evaluate the use of an Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) technique for the management of WR after SG including patients with overweight-obesity across the full BMI spectrum.
