LAP-BAND Surgery Technique

[LeeInDe. 0]

I found this site while searching various lap band sites,

Even though I am in the health care profession, I found this to be disturbing to think that I was possibly splayed on an OR table in this position!

I did not understand all of the technical jargon, but it is interesting if you really want to see what is done in a diagram type view.........:paranoid.

Here is the link: click on lap band technique.

This was discussed in a recent thread, and not all surgeons use this postion! It kind of weirded me out when I saw that diagram also.

I've watched a few proceedures on or-live.com and in each one, the doctor stood on the side - not between the legs.
