A - Tubing of the Lap Band.
B - The Slipped portion of the stomach as it sits above the Lap Band.
Notice how big or dilated the pouch is. A slip is also known as a prolapse. However, the slip is a misnomer. The Lap Band doesn't actually slip. The stomach ends up coming above the Lap Band. This can occur with frequent vomiting or PB'ing. |
