On Tuesday, August 28 at 6:00 pm CDT, join surgeons at Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, as they perform a Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy on OR-Live.com

This minimally invasive weight loss procedure removes a significant portion of the stomach and restricts the amount of food that can be eaten without any bypass of the intestines. The gastric sleeve procedure is best suited for extremely overweight patients with a body mass index (BMI) over 60. Karl LeBlanc, MD, MBA, FACS and Mark Hausmann, MD will host this live surgical webcast.
