Clinical Outcomes of Laparoscopic Greater Curvature Plication and Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy: a Case-Matched Control Study

Background Laparoscopic greater curvature plication (LGCP) is a new bariatric procedure that is similar to laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) in that it uses a restrictive mechanism. Comparative studies between LGCP and LSG were still limited. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of the two procedures based on the same clinical conditions.
