Repair of a Perforated Marginal Ulcer Seven Years After Roux-en Y Gastric Bypass: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Marginal ulcers can be a rare but fatal post-surgical complication of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). In this report, we will describe the case of a 70-year-old female, with a seven-year status post-gastrojejunostomy who presented with a perforated marginal ulcer and showed significant improvement in her symptoms after a revisional operation for the marginal ulcer. The goal of this case report is to make clinicians aware of the unique complications of RYGB and outline the appropriate workup for patients presenting with post-bariatric abdominal pain.
