Abstract
Anastomotic leaks after gastric bypass range from 1 to 4.5%. Covered polyester (Polyflex) stents have demonstrated good results in the management of thoracic esophageal anastomotic leaks, but no studies have reported results in treating gastrojejunal(GJ)anastomotic leaks with these stents after Roux-en-Y (RNY) gastric bypass. The purpose of this study is to present the first series of endoscopically placed polyester stents for the management of GJ anastomotic leaks after RNY gastric bypass.
