GREATER OMENTUM TORSION AFTER Y EN ROUX GASTRIC BYPASS
Abstract
A clinical case of rotation and ischemia of the great epiploon is shown. This is a rare complication. However, it must be a diagnostic hypothesis to consider in patients with acute abdomen and history of gastric bypass Roux-en-Y, not only in the postoperative period early, as it may be the cause of a late complication.
