DR. YASSER ABDELREHIM
PROCEDURE

Revision Surgery

Correcting the results of a previous operation that did not go as planned — careful academic assessment of what happened, and a considered plan to put it right.

Who it suits

  • Patients who have regained significant weight after a previous procedure
  • Those experiencing complications from earlier surgery — reflux, stricture, or a poorly formed pouch
  • Cases where the original procedure did not achieve the intended result
  • Patients seeking a second opinion after surgery elsewhere — including abroad

What to expect

  • Assessment first — imaging, endoscopy and a full review of your original operation records before any plan is made
  • Technique — laparoscopic where possible; some revisions require an open approach
  • Complexity — revision surgery is technically more demanding than a first operation and carries higher risk
  • Duration and stay — vary considerably depending on what is found and what is required
  • Outcomes — assessed case by case; we will be candid with you about what is realistically achievable

Results and recovery differ from one person to another and depend on your medical circumstances, commitment to follow-up and nutrition. The figures above are indicative and are not a guarantee of outcome. Your suitability for this procedure is determined only after a full clinical assessment.

Is this the right procedure for you?
