Gastric Sleeve Plication Surgery (Laparoscopic Greater Curvature Plication or LGCP)
The gastric sleeve plication surgery (also known as Laparoscopic Greater Curvature Plication or LGCP) is a procedure during which the surgeon reduces the size of the stomach by creating an internal fold within the stomach. Compared to gastric bypass surgery, gastric sleeve plication surgery does not require the resection of a portion of the stomach so the healthy tissue and its functionality are preserved by suturing the organ rather than removing a portion of it. An internal pleat will prevent the stomach from being able to hold large portions of food. This procedure is effective at helping patients lose weight quickly and it is reversible.

Gastric Plication Facts
Gastric plication is a new bariatric procedure fairly similar to the gastric sleeve. It involves folding the stomach into a sleeve or a pouch which reduces your normal food intake. Unlike other surgeries in this field, it does not involve the removal of a part of the stomach and it does not rearrange any part of the intestines.
After recovery your compulsion to eat will be lessened and your appetite will be satisfied with lower amounts of food. This in turn enables you to lose weight at a faster rate and helps you to push towards a healthier lifestyle. Find out if this is the right procedure for you.
