Laparoscopic repair of a migrated adjustable gastric band connecting tube with colonic erosion

Laparoscopic adjustable gastric bands are a popular and effective surgical option to treat morbid obesity. The overall complication rate is 10–20% and the most common complication is of ‘slippage’. Although other complications such as gastric band migration and erosion have been reported, the phenom...

description Laparoscopic adjustable gastric bands are a popular and effective surgical option to treat morbid obesity. The overall complication rate is 10–20% and the most common complication is of ‘slippage’. Although other complications such as gastric band migration and erosion have been reported, the phenomenon of a migrated gastric band connecting tube eroding into the colon (after port removal) is seldom reported in the literature. In this article we describe such a case of an incidentally found colonic erosion on colonoscopy and describe the subsequent laparoscopic repair, as well as a review of the literature.
