All procedures were performed under general anesthesia in dorsal to dorsal\u2010left oblique recumbency. Laparoscopic ports were placed on ventral midline in 1 of 3 port configurations, and 5 mm laparoscopic needle drivers were used for intracorporeal sutured gastropexy with unidirectional barbed suture. The gastropexy was positioned just caudal to the 13th rib, 2\u20104 cm lateral to the rectus abdominis muscle.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Sixty\u2010three dogs underwent total laparoscopic gastropexy with a single, simple continuous, barbed suture line.

Short term (&gt;24 hours to 6 months postoperative) complications included incisional seroma formation (n\u2009=\u20092) and suture reaction (n\u2009=\u20091).
