Abstract

A 63-year-old woman with BMI 46 underwent laparoscopic gastric banding. In the standardized follow-up after 14 and 24 months, the GI series and gastroscopy showed no pathological signs. The patient had hematemesis 32 months after gastric banding, followed by symptoms of obstruction, for which a laparotomy was performed. At operation, peritoneal carcinomatosis due to gastric cancer was found. Symptoms after bariatric procedures can be similar to symptoms of gastric or esophageal cancer. We believe that yearly postoperative gastroscopy is indicated to exclude pathological changes.
