Clinical Challenges in Bariatric Surgery: Postoperative Leak

  • Summary

  • We are seeing a 42F in the emergency room who underwent a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy 11 days ago. The operation was uneventful, and she had a negative airleak test. She had an uneventful postoperative course and was discharged on POD 1. Her medical history is significant for hypertension and hyperlipidemia, and he has no other surgical history. She has been able to keep up with her clear liquid diet. She complains that this morning she experienced abdominal and palpitations. You note her vitals show a mildly elevated blood pressure and her latest heart rate is 120s. Join Drs. Matthew Martin, Adrian Dan, Crystall Johnson-Mann, and Paul Wisniowski on a discussion about initial evaluation and management of bariatric patients with internal hernias.
