Background: The main goal of bariatric surgery is the reduction of Body mass index (BMI). Laparoscopic adjustable gastric band (LAGB) was the most popular method due to its relative advantages over others. Clinical case: A 44-year-old woman with abdominal pain and distension, with a history of LAGB placement had a diagnosis of intestinal occlusion secondary to a twist in the device tube, surgical management was given, the patient presented adequate evolution. Conclusion: The occlusion of the small intestine by the tube of the device is a serious and uncommon complication to be considered as a differential diagnosis in bariatric patients.

Unrealistic Expectations

Bariatric surgery is currently the most viable and cost-effective treatment for obesity. This study aimed to understand, from a female patient’s perspective, what contributed to not achieving or maintaining excess weight loss from a primary laparoscopic adjustable gastric band surgery, leading to subsequent multiple revisional bariatric surgeries. The purposive sample of participants ( N = 17 females) were over 18 years, had a primary failed laparoscopic adjustable gastric band and had more than three revisional procedures. Participants were individually interviewed and data were analysed from a grounded theory methodology to build a causal model with the core category of unrealistic expectations of bariatric surgery and other important conceptual categories.
