The temporary use of the bioenterics intragastric balloon in morbid obesity is increasing worldwide. Generally, this is an effective procedure that helps bring about satisfactory weight loss and improvement in comorbidities after 6 months. However, in some cases, it causes complications such as acute abdomen due to gastric perforation and even death. We describe the case of a type II obese female (weight, 88 kg; body mass index, 35.2 kg/m(2)) who underwent emergency surgery for gastric necrosis caused by bioenterics intragastric balloon; the patient required total gastrectomy and intensive care.
生物可降解型胃内球囊在病态性肥胖症中的临时应用在全球范围内日益增多。一般来说，该方法是一种有效的程序，有助于在 6 个月后实现令人满意的体重减轻和合并症改善。然而，在某些情况下，它会导致并发症，如胃穿孔引起的急性腹痛，甚至死亡。我们描述了一位 II 型肥胖女性（体重 88 公斤；体重指数 35.2 公斤/平方米）的病例，她因生物可降解型胃内球囊导致胃坏死而接受了紧急手术；患者需要全胃切除术和重症监护。
