Endomanga MEGA: Stomach reduction without surgery

Endomanga MEGA differs from conventional endomanga in that it uses larger but fewer folds, as the sutures are placed across a broader area of gastric tissue. This results in a greater feeling of fullness with a smaller amount of food intake.

The risks associated with Endomanga MEGA include:

• Infection: As with any procedure, there is a risk of infection if proper post-operative care is not followed.
• Hematomas or bleeding: Excessive bleeding or bruising may occur in the treated area.
• Gastric content leakage: There is a risk of stomach contents leaking into other areas, potentially leading to serious complications.
• Thrombosis: Patients undergoing this procedure may have a risk of developing blood clots.
• Respiratory complications: Being an abdominal procedure, there may be a risk of respiratory issues during or after the intervention.
• Adverse reactions to anesthesia: As with any surgical procedure, there is a risk of anesthesia-related reactions.
• Gastroesophageal reflux: Some patients may experience increased symptoms of acid reflux after the procedure.

Endomanga MEGA does not require any incisions or cutting. It is a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure, unlike bariatric surgeries such as gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy, which involve open or laparoscopic surgery.
