| Summary: | This work analyzed the results of surgical treatment of 380 patients who underwent the laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) at the period from 2004 to 2015. The patients were initially divided into 2 groups with metabolic syndrome (MS) and without MS according to the sex, age (up to 40 years old or older). As the result of performed analysis, there was stated that LAGB operation wasn’t effective and couldn’t be recommended for an application on the patients with MS. The patients have to follow necessary advice for life. Otherwise, the probability of complication development and recurrent operation would be really high and because of this, the more effective surgical treatment should be initially used. LAGB operation didn’t influence on pathogenetic mechanisms of main components of MS and couldn’t be regarded as effective. This LAGB operation is reasonable to apply in women without MS of young age group with initial body mass index lower than 43 kg/m². These women have to be able strictly follow doctor’s advice for life.
