slang voor plastische maagoperatie Explanation: Woordenboek geneeskunde: gastroplasty = plastische maagoperatie (= plastic stomach operation) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-06 21:03:33 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- To Leo: I do agree with you that the definition seems in first instance theoretically wrong, but I suppose the tube is made by folding a plastic sheet around the concerning stomach part, and welding it to a tube. For a relatively long, hollow object with an outer diameter of 10 mm is \"slang\" (tube) is the best designation, in my opnion. The part \"operatie\" in \"maagoperatie\", does not refer to the stomach, but tot the patient. As to your answer: I don\'t think people laugh out loud when they hear someone talking about a \"maagcorset\", but I wonder if it is the best designation for a 10 mm wide .... tube (I\'m sorry). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-07 05:46:26 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Look at http://www.gastricbypass.org/about_the_procedure.htm for a similar method: Silastic Ringed Gastroplasty In silastic ringed gastroplasty (SRVG), there is no need to make the transgastric window because the stapling device used to make the vertical partition is constructed so that the added step is unnecessary. Instead of polypropylene mesh, a silastic ring is used to prevent dilatation of the outlet channel. The complications discussed with the VBG are essentially the same for SRVG. There is one main reason for choosing the SRVG over the VBG. Since a transgastric window is not needed with the SRVG, there is no risk for a staple line dehiscence at the circular staple line. I think in our case a tube is used instead of a ring. The tube is not placed over the stomach, but \"perpendicular around\" it, and the ends are connected to each other and/or to a kind of pump to regulate the diameter of the passage. |

Gastrischer Schlauch Explanation: Is a possibility. Means exactly the as "Magenschlauch", but is maybe is a somewhat more medical way to put it. See link below Reference: http://www.gesundheit.de/roche/ro12500/r12911.html |

peer agreement (net): +1instelbare maagband, instelbaar maagcorset Explanation: From your description I read that the device is applied around the stomach, and therefore it cannot be a tube, as the english name suggests. A tube could only be applied if the gastric channel were interrupted somewhere! This makes me stay close to the topologically neutral german "Magenband": dutch = maagband. The effective size is adjustable after the application, which is reflected in the adjective "instelbaar". From the resemblance with the way women used to adjust their diameter up to 50 years ago, I propose "instelbaar maagcorset". However, do only use this term after consulting others: if they laugh, it is not suitable. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-06 22:23:46 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- To Henk: You are right about the technique propably used, as long as you don\'t refer to a thermal process of welding. If some kind of a \'snap\' or \'click-\' connection is made, I prefer \"maagband\" above terms in which \'slang\' (tube) is a part of the solution. I think, that the best name for this device may be something totally different from what\'s suggested up to now. May be it could be found, if we saw a picture of is, made while being applied on a dummy stomach..... |
