Abstract:
Bariatric and metabolic surgery is the only effective long-term treatment for morbid obesity. The three main practiced surgeries during the last 30 years are the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), the sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and the laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (AGB). These surgeries can lead to long-term complications of a functional or of a surgical nature. Rapid management in a specialized setting where appropriate investigations can be done is essential. Abdominal pain after bariatric surgery are frequent, multiple and difficult to apprehend. They should not be trivialized because the risks of severe complications without an adequate and quick management are important.
