RE: RNY Complications -- This is a HOOT

[Guest guest]

Wow. I had no idea that was a possible complication of open RNY. Had I

known that, I may have opted for lap. ;0

RNY Complications -- This is a HOOT

I have to pass along something that I thought was hysterically

funny!!! Tonight, I was reading an abstract of an article (Open vs.

Laparoscopic

RYGBP: Comparison of Operative Morbidity and Mortality) and they were

listing

complications that occurred in their subject groups (one group was open, the

other Lap).

Okay, so I'm cruising through this abstract, reading the normal

things; Gastrojejunal Perforation, Gastrojejunal Stenosis, Ventral

Incisional

Hernia, Cholecystitis... yadda yadda... okay, so then, there it is -- the

FUNNIEST

complication I have ever heard of occurring from WLS:

Hit in Head by Trapeze

(http://www.utahbariatrics.com/comparison.shtml)

ROFLMAO!!!! This happened to one person in the " open " group. I just about

peed my pants when I came across this one!!!

Thought some of the rest of you could use this chuckle too.

I am curious about the injury from the trapeze and also the pelvic

inflammatory disease - someone PLEASE explain how this patient developed

a venereal disease as a result of open rny - Amber/FLRN
