Abstract

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is the most commonly performed bariatric procedure in the world. Jejunojenual intussusception after RYGB is a rare but potentially serious complication. Timely radiographic recognition and surgical therapy with laparoscopic enteropexy of all limbs of the enteroenteric anastomosis in our experience allows same-day management with return to work and activities of daily living without recurrence of intussusception.
