Missing Jejunal Perforation During Small Bowel Measurement in Patient Operated by Laparoscopic One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass.

Background: Obesity surgery is justified as it produces sustained weight loss, increases life expectancy, and reduces the complications of obesity. For this reason, increasing numbers of patients are undergoing this surgery [1]. Complications following surgical treatment of severe obesity vary based upon the procedure performed and, although it is currently below 7% in more experienced centers, it may increase in more complex surgeries (such as revision surgery) and can be as high as 40% [2, 3].

[Making easier what is difficult: continuous suture in intracorporeal anastomosis].

Bariatric surgery requires a high level of training and detailed knowledge of advanced laparoscopy, especially when carrying out intracorporeal anastomosis. The following presentation shows two examples used by our group, which consists of slipknots done at the beginning and the end of the thread that allows us to do the suture quickly and securely.
