Perforated marginal ulcers after laparoscopic gastric bypass

Abstract: The incidence of a marginal ulcer perforating after LRYGB was significant (>1%) and appeared to be related to smoking or the use of NSAIDs or steroids. Because only 0.2% of all patients acutely perforated without some risk factor or warning, long-term ulcer prophylaxis or treatment may be necessary for only a select group of high-risk patients.

“…Caution should be applied when administering diuretics post-operatively, as the combined diuretic effect of the drugs and the operation may cause dehydration [83]. NSAIDs, salicylates, corticosteroids and other drugs that may cause gastric damage should be avoided [84,85]. Oral contraceptives should be replaced by non-oral contraceptives due to reduced efficacy after gastric bypass and biliopancreatic diversion.…”

“…), son factores descritos que también pueden incidir en la aparición y perforación de una úlcera marginal post BPGLP 6 . Como en muchas patologías, probablemente la etiología es multifactorial, presentando los pacientes varios de los factores de riesgo más habituales, aunque se ha descrito que hasta un 20% no tendría ningún factor de riesgo identificable 19 . El tratamiento de la úlcera marginal no perforada consiste en el control de los factores de riesgo, …”

“…La perforación es un evento grave que suele requerir una reoperación, por lo que se deben hacer todos los esfuerzos para evitar esta complicación. La probabilidad de perforación de una úlcera marginal es baja, describiéndose una prevalencia entre un 0,4 a 0,8% 7,15,17,[19][20][21][22][23] , concordando lo informado en este trabajo con la literatura. Al ser un grupo pequeño de pacientes, los factores asociados al desarrollo de esta complicación se encuentran menos estudiados, sin embargo, algunos tienden a repetirse en las distintas series.…”
