Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is a procedure commonly used for weight loss associated with improved outcomes and decreased complications when compared to some counterparts. The procedure involves restriction of the stomach that is achieved by creation of a gastric pouch and bypass of the duodenum and a portion of the jejunum to aid in restrictive and malabsorptive weight loss. While many complications, both early and late, have been described following the procedure, recurrent perihepatic abscess has not been described in the literature. We present a case of a 66-year-old woman with recurrent extrahepatic abscesses following revision of a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.
Roux-en-Y胃旁路手术是一种常用于减肥的手术,与其他一些同类手术相比,其效果更佳且并发症减少。该手术通过创建胃囊来限制胃容量,并绕过十二指肠和部分空肠,以帮助实现限制性和吸收不良性减肥。虽然该手术后已报道了许多早期和晚期并发症,但复发性肝周脓肿在文献中尚未见报道。我们报告一例66岁女性,在Roux-en-Y胃旁路手术翻修后出现复发性肝外脓肿。
