Although lap band surgery is a very serious, major surgery, the mortality rate for lap band surgery patients is low compared to most other surgeries. Recent studies have shown that as low as 1 of 2000 lap band patients will experience any sort of lasting complications with less than 5% of lap band patients requiring re-operation. The actual morality rate of lap band surgery patients is less than 1%.

How successful are aortic valve implants?
If the aortic valve problem is causing symptoms replacing it can almost immediately improve heart function and the ability to exert yourself. It can also reduce the need for medications, especially diuretics. However, there is a 3-5% operative mortality rate and a complication rate of 2-3% per year which sometimes requires re-operation. There is a 1% death rate per year after the surgery that is directly attributable to the implant. Without the surgery the mortality rate of even severe aortic stenosis is less than 1% if no symptoms are present. However, the mortality rate goes up to 25% per year in patients with symptoms. For this reason, the surgery is felt to be clearly beneficial in symptomatic patients but controversial in asymptomatic patients (even with "severe" stenosis by echocardiographic criteria).
