Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG), also known as an “accordion procedure”, works by inserting a flexible tube with a camera and medical instruments into the stomach through a patient’s mouth. Sections of the stomach wall are then folded and stitched together to create a tube-like sleeve, making patients feel fuller sooner. The procedure takes 90 minutes, with patients usually able to go home on the same day, and is reversible.
