June 12, 2018 updated by: CARLOS ZERRWECK LOPEZ, Hospital General Tlahuac

Unexpected Intraoperative Findings and Complications in Bariatric Surgery

Retrospective study with patients submitted to bariatric surgery between 2013 and 2016 at a single Institution. The objective was to analyze the incidence and causes of unexpected intraoperative findings and complications, change in surgical plan, extra surgeries and procedure interruption. All operative information was collected prospectively and aimed to describe any of the previous situations. Secondarily, a morbidity analysis was performed, correlating intraoperative complications with postoperative complications and length of stay.
