Advanced management of postoperative hemorrhage following gastric bypass surgery through super-selective celiac artery coil embolization.

A 36-year-old male presented with dizziness and melena 5 years post laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB). Initial treatments with proton pump inhibitors and blood transfusions was followed by esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) and CT angiography, identifying an active arterial bleed at the gastrojejunal anastomosis. Super-selective celiac artery coil embolization successfully controlled the bleeding.

A review of scleral buckle procedures performed at a tertiary care center in Karachi, Pakistan.

This retrospective study was done to evaluate the visual and anatomic outcomes of scleral buckling for the repair of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).
