Pouch dilatation with or without slippage of the band is a serious complication of gastric banding, often attributed to initial malpositioning of the band. Food intake is increased, and weight regain occurs. Progressive rotation of the band follows, leading to functional stenosis and dysphagia. Reoperation is necessary in most cases, and may consist of band removal, band change, band repositioning, or conversion to another bariatric procedure.
