Abstract

Bariatric Surgery Enterocutaneous Fistula Fibrin Glue Fibrin Sealant Sleeve Gastrectomy
Bariatric postoperative leaks are being seen more frequently due to the increased number of surgical procedures. Endoscopic repair of these leaks and fistulae is a safe and effective option for patients who would otherwise undergo complex surgical revision. This chapter will discuss the current endoscopic options available to manage these patients.
