Often, other gastrointestinal surgery is performed at the same time as the vagotomy. Part of the stomach may be removed, for instance. Vagotomy causes a decrease in peristalsis and a change in the emptying patterns of the stomach.

Will a plastic surgeon do multiple elective surgeries on the same person in the same day to cut costs?

A plastic surgeon may perform multiple elective surgeries on the same person in a day, not only to cut costs for both the patient and themselves, but also because it may be easier on the patient in a recovery standpoint. With not having to pay multiple anesthesiology fees, lab fees, and the like, the patient can save thousands.
