Three to five years after gastric bypass surgery, some patients start to regain weight because the size of their stoma (the opening at the bottom of the stomach pouch) or their stomach pouch itself has increased. This can keep you from feeling full after small meals.

To resolve this problem, our surgeons use new surgical tools to create and suture folds into the pouch, reducing its volume and at the stoma to decrease its diameter. The surgeon performs the procedure entirely through the mouth -- inserting an endoscope under heavy sedation -- so there are no external incisions into the body.

An amputation is the removal of an extremity or appendage from the body. Amputations in the upper extremity can occur as a result of trauma, or they can be performed in the treatment of congenital or acquired conditions. Although successful replantation represents a technical triumph to the surgeon, the patient's best interests should direct the treatment of amputations. The goals involved in the treatment of amputations of the upper extremity include the following : Preservation of functional length Durable coverage Preservation of useful sensibility Prevention of symptomatic neuromas Prevention of adjacent joint contractures Early return to work Early prosthetic fitting These goals apply differently to different levels of amputation. Treatment of amputations can be challenging and rewarding. It is imperative that the surgeon treat the patient with the ultimate goal of optimizing function and rehabilitation and not become absorbed in the enthusiasm of the technical challenge of the replantation, which could result in poorer outcome and greater financial cost due to lost wages, hospitalization, and therapy.

If you have a large area of warts, curettage may not be an effective treatment. Some surgical treatments may be too painful for some children.

Urological surgeons have become proficient at performing complex pelvic urological procedures, such as radical prostatectomy, using the laparoscopic approach. Declan Murphy and Daniel Moon share their experience of four less common procedures they have performed recently using laparoscopic techniques. These include: excision of a urachal cyst; partial cystectomy for endometriosis (combined endoscopic-laparoscopic approach); repair of an intra-peritoneal bladder rupture; and repair of a ureteric injury (combined endoscopic-laparoscopic approach).
