“…Lopez-Corvala et al reported a series of 100 cases [ 14 ], operated in the Hospital Angeles in Tijuana Mexico. According to the authors, mean preoperative BMI was 39.7 (30–61), and %EWL was 43.1 at 1 month and 56.6 at 6 months.…”

“…Inclusion criteria were not defined in the original Talebpour publication although minimum BMI was 36. They were also not defined in the Lopez-Corvala et al study from Mexico [ 14 ], in which minimum BMI was 30. The inclusion criteria for the Khazzaka and Sarkis study included an age of 18–62 years and a BMI of 32–35 kg/m 2 as well as a history of GERD and obesity for more than 5 years with unsuccessful attempts at conservative weight-loss therapy [ 15 ], as this study was aimed at demonstrating the efficacy of LGCP with Nissen fundoplication in obese patients with GERD.…”

Introduction. Laparoscopic greater curvature plication is an operation that is gaining ground in the treatment of morbid obesity, as it appears to replicate the results of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy with fewer complications. Aim. Review of current literature, especially results on weight loss and complications. Method. 11 (eleven) published articles on laparoscopic gastric plication, of which 1 preclinical study, 8 prospective studies for a total of 521 patients and 2 case reports of unusual complications. Results. Reported Paracentage of EWL in all studies is comparable to Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (around 50% in 6 months, 60–65% in 12 months, 60–65% in 24 months) and total complication rate is at 15,1% with minor complications in 10,7%, major complications in 4,4%. Reoperation rate was 3%, conversion rate was 0,2%, and mortality was zero. Conclusion. Current literature on gastric plication and its modifications is limited and sketchy at times. Low cost, short hospital stay, absence of prosthetic material, and reversibility make it an attractive option. Initial data show that LGCP is effective for short- and medium-term weight loss, complication and reoperation rates are low, and GERD symptoms are unaffected. More data is required, and randomized control trials must be completed in order to reach safe conclusions.

“…Kourkoulos et al [11] analyzed pooled data from studies published before April 2012 and found that, as documented in the literature, approximately 521 patients have undergone lapa-roscopic greater curvature plication since 2006 [12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Since then, the largest patient cohort to date of 244 patients undergoing laparoscopic greater curvature plication was published by Fried et al [8].…”

Morbid obesity is an important health problem of our century. It is managed by diet, lifestyle changes and medication and surgery. Weight-loss surgery is the most effective treatment for morbid obesity, producing durable weight loss, improvement or remission of comorbid conditions and longer life. Bariatric surgery provides the best results in up to 75% of cases of severe obesity and obesity comorbidities. In the United States, over 200 000 patients benefit every year from bariatric procedures. That means there is a continuous evolving of the bariatric surgery. Bariatric surgery is metabolic surgery because it resolves or alleviates Type2 Diabetes, hyperlipidemia and hypertension. The most employed bariatric operations are Roux -en-Y gastric by-pass, adjustable gastric banding, biliopancreatic diversion and sleeve gastrectomy, each of them having shortage of long term results and safety. In the last eight years was introduced a new bariatric procedure, the gastric plication, in an effort to obtain similar weight loss with lesser complications and costs. We present our initial experience with 30 morbid obese patients who undergone laparoscopic gastric plication in our institution. The mean % Excess Weight Loss was 50% at 6 month and 65% at 12 month with important alleviation of comorbidities. The complications rate was 6.6% for major complications (but only in the first 6 cases) and 10% for minor complications.
