We present a literature review and the description of Wernicke's encephalopathy in a patient who developed neurologic symptoms 2 months after gastric partitioning for morbid obesity. After a prolonged incapacitating illness, autopsy confirmed the diagnosis. We identify characteristic features of the association and discuss possible pathophysiology.
我们对一名病态肥胖患者在接受胃分隔术后2个月出现神经症状的病例进行了文献综述并描述了韦尼克脑病。经过长时间的致残性疾病后，尸检确诊了该诊断。我们确定了该关联的特征并讨论了可能的病理生理学。
