This retrospective study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding as a means of treatment of morbid obesity in Qatar.

Methods : Seventy-one patients (59 females; mean age 32 years, range 18 to 60) underwent laparoscopic adjust¬able gastric banding for morbid obesity.

Their mean weight was 134.6 Kg (range 90 to 200) and mean preoperative body mass index was 49.8 Kg/m2 (range 36.5 to 70).

Results : All patients were followed-up for a mean du¬ration of 8.6 months (average 1 to 27).

The mean excess weight loss was 27 % (range 0 to 84).

The operation time showed a marked reduction with a mean duration of 149 minutes in the first ten cases reaching to a mean of 81 minutes in the last ten cases.

The commonest early com¬plication was chest infection seen in 3 patients (4.1 %).

Late complications were seen in 5 cases (6.9 %) most commonly related to swallowing.

One case developed band infection severe enough to necessitate removal of the band.

There was no operative related mortality.

Conclusion : Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding is relatively an effective means for control of morbid obe¬sity with a low rate of complications.
