“…A multidisciplinary team, including gastroenterologists, bariatric surgeons, surgical endoscopists, interventional radiologists, and registered dieticians, is often called upon to manage post-SG complications. Endoscopic methods to manage SG complications are often considered given the risks associated with a reoperation, and endoscopy plays a significant role in the diagnosis and management of post-SG complications [7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. We perform a detailed review of the current endoscopic management of common post-SG complications.…”

Obesity is associated with several chronic conditions including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease and malignancy. Bariatric surgery, most commonly Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy, is an effective treatment modality for obesity and can improve associated comorbidities. Over the last 20 years, there has been an increase in the rate of bariatric surgeries associated with the growing obesity epidemic. Sleeve gastrectomy is the most widely performed bariatric surgery currently, and while it serves as a durable option for some patients, it is important to note that several complications, including sleeve leak, stenosis, chronic fistula, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and gastroesophageal reflux disease, may occur. Endoscopic methods to manage post-sleeve gastrectomy complications are often considered due to the risks associated with a reoperation, and endoscopy plays a significant role in the diagnosis and management of post-sleeve gastrectomy complications. We perform a detailed review of the current endoscopic management of post-sleeve gastrectomy complications.

The obesity epidemic continues to be a global health concern impacting over 890 million adults worldwide. These numbers have quadrupled since 1990, and global health surveys estimate another 2.5 billion adults are overweight. The disease of obesity is chronic in nature and difficult to treat. The number of metabolic and bariatric surgeries performed today continues to increase and with it the number of revisional surgeries and management of complications. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy has played an important role in diagnosing and managing patients with obesity. Endoscopy is a safe and minimally invasive technique to address surgical complications and explore new techniques for the management of obesity. In this article, we aim to review the evolving role of endoscopy in revisional bariatric surgery: management of immediate complications, including bleeding, strictures, leaks, and erosion of bands; techniques to access the gastric remnant after a gastric bypass; and management of weight regain.
