Complications You Should Know About Weight Loss Surgery
(Go Back...) In any weight
loss surgery, there is the possibility that the newly created stomach pouch can
become obstructed. This can be a potentially dangerous complication so it is
important for patients to follow all guidelines. Obstruction can be caused by
eating the wrong kinds of food which can be stringy, fibrous foods, peanut
butter, fruits and vegetables with seeds, shrimp, untoasted or doughy breads,
dried fruits and meats, popcorn, greasy and fried foods and citrus fruits. Also,
the stomach twisting following surgery or becoming enlarged can cause
obstruction.
When a patient’s stomach becomes obstructed, there will be
cramping, binge eating, nausea and vomiting. It is very important for potential
weight loss surgery patients to discuss any questions about complications before
the surgery is performed. Serious complications are reported in about five
percent of all weight loss surgery patients following surgery.
