REVISION SURGERIES
What Are Revision Surgeries?
Revision surgeries are corrective operations performed when a previous surgery does not achieve the desired result or complications occur. In other words, these are second or additional surgical interventions carried out to improve or correct the outcome of the first operation.
Op. Dr. Zafer Cenk Koyuncu, one of Turkey’s leading obesity surgeons, stands out with his successful revision surgeries in this field. Thanks to his experience and patient-centered approach, he minimizes the risk of complications and helps patients achieve a better quality of life.
🩺 In Which Cases Is Revision Surgery Needed?
🔹 Problems such as infection, tissue loss, or issues during the healing process
🔹 Insufficient correction of structural disorders
🔹 Incompatibility or displacement of prostheses or implants
🔹 Deformations that occur over time
If the patient loses less than 50% of their excess weight within 18 months after the initial obesity surgery; if long-term or late complications develop due to the first operation; or if weight is regained after losing it, the first operation is considered unsuccessful and revision surgery comes into play. Many bariatric surgeons prefer to convert a failed restrictive procedure into a malabsorptive or a combined (restrictive + malabsorptive) technique.
