BACKGROUND: Bariatric procedures can induce a massive @entity353 that lasts for >15 years after surgery; in addition, they achieve important metabolic effects including @entity6 resolution in the majority of morbidly @entity28 @entity1 . However, some bariatric interventions may cause @entity354 and other serious complications. The aim of our study is to evaluate the risk of @entity5 after bariatric surgery. METHODS: We conducted a review of the literature about the cases of @entity356 arising after any bariatric procedure, including a case of @entity420 incidentally discovered by the authors 6 months after laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding. RESULTS: Globally, 17 case reports describing 18 @entity1 were retrieved, including the case study by the authors. The diagnosis of @entity5 was at a mean of 8.6 years after bariatric surgery, 9.3 years after RYGB, and 8.1 years after restrictive procedures. The @entity420 represented most cases (15 @entity1 , 83%). In the @entity1 with RYGB, the @entity420 was localized in the excluded stomach in 5 @entity1 (83%) and in the pouch in 1 @entity1 (17%). After a restrictive procedure, the @entity5 was localized in the pouch in 5 @entity1 (62.5%), in the pylorus in 2 @entity1 (25%), and in lesser curvature only in 1 @entity1 (12.5%). CONCLUSIONS: There is a lack of evidence about a connection between the late occurrence of @entity356 and the bariatric surgery. For this reason, although the preoperative @entity1729 is still mandatory, there is no need for a regular endoscopic evaluation of @entity1 after surgery.
