Stomach stitching for weight loss in endometrial cancer patients
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a new weight-loss procedure called Endoscopic Suture Gastroplasty (ESG) for women with endometrial (uterine) cancer who are obese. The procedure uses a special camera and stitches to make the stomach smaller, helping you lose weight before your cancer surgery.
