Guest guest Posted October 19, 2000 Report Share Posted October 19, 2000 Hi PhillyJude! I hope this helps answer the question. Take a look at: http://clos.net/op_descr.htm It states that Also there is a picture of a completed division and stapling of part of the new pouch at: http://clos.net/op/op03.htm The GIA stapler, as I understand, cuts, cauterizes, and staples all in one shot. Looking forward to mine being done in only 13 days! My best! Jenn in Vancouver, WA preop 11-1-00 Message: 4 Date: Thu, 19 Oct 2000 15:15:58 EDT From: Judyh1022@... Subject: Re: Digest Number 2327 The stomach is stapled, not incised, in the MGB. Easy to reverse should the need arrive. Just thought I'd let ya' know. Of this fact I am certain. (And not much else!)
