The surgery to place the implantable gastric stimulator (IGS) is described.
There are two implantable components to the IGS. One is the electrical stimulator itself, which is placed in the anterior abdominal wall. It is connected to a bipolar lead that is positioned in the muscle wall of the stomach. We describe the procedure that is necessary to safely place the components.
4 patients have been implanted using techniques that were developed and refined around the world. There were no operative deaths. All procedures were successfully completed laparoscopically. Two (2/4) connections required revision because the leads were not fully inserted into the header of the generator.
The operation to implant the IGS is safe and simple to perform. Attention to technical details is essential.
描述了植入式胃刺激器（IGS）的手术过程。
IGS有两个可植入部件。一个是电刺激器本身，置于前腹壁。它与一根双极导线相连，该导线位于胃肌壁内。我们描述了安全植入这些部件所需的手术步骤。
4例患者采用世界各地开发并改进的技术进行了植入。无手术死亡病例。所有手术均通过腹腔镜成功完成。2例（2/4）连接需要修正，因为导线未完全插入发生器的插头。
植入IGS的手术安全且操作简单。关注技术细节至关重要。
