Abstract:
Obesity has been linked to many types of cancers, and this association has received much attention. Here, we are reporting the case of a 41-year-old male patient, the second case diagnosed in our hospital with advanced metastatic gastroesophageal cancer eight years after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Routine preoperative endoscopy for all patients planned for bariatric surgery can play an important role in preoperative surgery selection, detection of abnormal pathology/lesions, as well as in postoperative follow-up/esophagogastroduodenoscopy surveillance plans, especially for patients identified as high-risk to develop cancer.
