Article Synopsis
- A case study discusses a pregnant patient who experienced a bowel obstruction due to intussusception, following a Roux-en-Y bypass surgery in the past.
- The patient suffered from acute abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting, leading to an exploratory laparotomy that revealed an internal hernia and intussusception, which was treated surgically.
- The case emphasizes the importance of considering potential complications like intussusception in pregnant patients with a history of bariatric surgery and the need for prompt medical evaluation in similar situations.
