Migration and section of esophageal thermometer in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy: Clinical case of a preventable complication.

Introduction And Importance: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is a prevalent bariatric surgery for managing morbid obesity. Despite its efficacy, complications can arise, particularly from intraoperative devices such as esophageal thermometers and orogastric tubes. These devices, if misplaced or inadequately monitored, can migrate and become entrapped or sectioned during surgery, leading to significant morbidity.
