FIGURE 2. Schematic illustration for performing IGS-IGP for gastric volume reduction in an ex-vivo experimental swine model: A) a single port device is inserted in the antral part of the stomach, and laparoscopic intragastric suturing is performed using four interrupted sutures; B) intragastric greater curvature plication is started from the fundus region, progressing with further non-absorbable sutures to the antrum and, finally, the entry incision is closed with running suture.
