Band removal videos?

Does anyone know where you can watch lap band removal surgeries other than that Dr. Rutledge video on youtube? That one is trying to sell his mini- bypass or something and it looks like the band eroded into the stomach yuck!

PS: there is some funky sh**t on youtube and I should never have watched it!!!!

    I saw those Dr. Rutledge videos, and how he interviews patients. Wish I had never looked.:tongue2:

    I just wanted an idea of how they removed the bands but most of those had major comps or a revision was done soon after. I ended up watching the actual band surgery by someone in Kansas City and figure it would be similar but backwards to some degree, lol and a lot less scary!
