NEW TYPES OF SURGERY? Anyone had Incessionless Surgery? POSE Primary Obesity Surgery, Endoluminal? Is it same as StomaphX, ROSE, TOGA?

[Guest NotSoLittleMermaid]

Hello, has anyone had this surgery? Has it worked for you? I might have a condition that wouldn't lend itself well to VSG or Plication and I know I don't want the band. Might need to have repeated endoscopes and see all of my stomach. I keep thinking if the POSE prodceedure or something like it where the stomach was made smaller but still viewable that is the answer. From the very limited research it sounds like StomaphX and TOGA it looks like failed miserabley. I don't know if POSE is different, but I've looks all the places I know, and info/experiences are very limited. I am wondering if there is any new procedures coming out in the baratric field. Please post if you heard of new types of surgery coming down the pike!

It's too close to the Rose and Stomaphyx procedure for me to believe that it'll work long term.
