Our Product – Mid-Band

The MIDBAND was designed with the advice and guidance of Dr. Vincent Frering after his extensive experience with other bands, such as the American Lapband (Inamed)and the Swedish Band (previously Obtech and now Johnson & Johnson).

The MIDBAND is an adjustable peri-gastric belt, implantable by laparoscopy. It is indicated for surgical treatment of morbid obesity defined by an index of mass in excess of 40 kg/m2 (or 35 kg/m2 with co-morbidities).

The MIDBAND provides a very attractive alternative to conventional surgical methods which are more invasive and irreversible, requiring extended hospitalization.

The MIDBAND is extremely flexible making it easy to fit. It is inextensible, and the unique double closure system ensures a fastening capacity far in excess of the physiological conditions required.

The MIDBAND has no sharp edges or irregularities therby preserving the gastric wall intact, even in event of rubbing. It is opaque to X rays, making it easy to locate and adjust.
