Brief summary
Bariatric surgery is increasingly used as a treatment for morbid obesity. This is a retrospective audit of existing data in which we wish to analyse the efficacy and safety of the Swedish Adjustable Gastric Band (SAGB) VC in the treatment of morbid obesity. It is our intention to analyse follow-up data from those patients who have an SAGB-VC.
