Step 1: Identification of the fistula. The suture line of the prior sleeve gastrectomy is identified and followed proximally, to a focal area of nodularity with inflammatory pseudopolyps in the anastomotic scar. Moving proximally towards the GE junction, the gastric opening of the fistula is clearly identified in the greater curvature of the stom [...]

ESD is a technique for the resection of early gastrointestinal neoplasia, whose main advantage is that lesion without almost any size limit can be resected. However, it is technically challenging and associated with a significant risk of perforation. Submucosal dissection, after having completed the circumferential incision, is the most difficult s [...]

Introduction A 44 year old female with a past history of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass underwent an emergent antrectomy for a perforated peptic ulcer. This resulted in a completely excluded remnant stomach which required a permanent surgical gastrostomy tube for drainage of secretions. This figure shows the anatomy after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. The [...]
