Obesity surgery is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures today and laparoscopy has become the preferred technique for Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. A patient transferred to the surgery service for an abdominal pain had an abdominal tomography performed which demonstrated an aspect suggestive of internal hernia. Underwent emergency laparotomy. Resection of the ischemic area was performed. Reconstruct intestinal transit was madded 4 days after primary surgery.
