摘要：The present invention involves new interventional methods for reducing gastricvolume, and thereby treating obesity. The procedures are generally performedlaparoscopically and may generally be described as laparoscopic plication gastroplasty
(LPG) in which, after obtaining abdominal access, spaced apart sites on a gastric wall areengaged, approximated and fastened to create one or more tissue folds forming one ormore plications projecting into the gastrointestinal space. The serosal tissue mayoptionally be treated during the procedure to promote the formation of a strongserosa-to-serosa bond that ensures the long-term stability of the tissue plication. Theseprocedures are preferably carried out entirely extragastrically (i.e. without penetratingthrough the gastrointestinal wall), thereby minimizing the risks of serious complications.
