Methods and devices are provided for adjusting the height of devices in a
gastric restriction system. In general, the methods and devices allow one
or more implantable housings coupled to an implantable restriction device
to have an adjustable height. The housing can include, for example, a
fill port housing, a sensor housing, and any other type of housing that
can be used in an implantable restriction system and desired to have an
adjustable height. The housing can lower in profile over time, e.g., as
the patient loses weight, thereby maintaining the housing in a generally
predictable location where it can be found and accessed.
