Abstract :
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is the most bariatric procedure being performed for obesity surgery worldwide. Although the procedure learning curve seems not too long, some complications of LSG can be major and/or life-threatening.

Here, we present one such chronic complication after LSG.
