ABSTRACT

Bariatric surgery is an effective treatment for morbid obesity. Various techniques have been developed with different outcomes and complications. A new technique with promising results recently described in the literature: the gastric plication, which would not have the complications of using mechanical suture and would imply a reduction of costs. We report the first case in Chile under this technique.

ABSTRACT

La rotura subcapsular hepática como complicación grave y altamente letal del síndrome de HELLP se presenta en un 2 a 3 por ciento de los casos, con una mortalidad reportada de un 33 por ciento con diversas técnicas quirúrgicas. En base a 4 casos se presenta la propuesta de una técnica quirúrgica que reporta según nuestra experiencia un 100 por ciento de sobrevida.
