Abstract | OBJECTIVE: The present study was aimed at evaluating radiological findings of delayed postoperative upper gastrointestinal series in patients submitted to Fobi-Capella surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Radiological studies of 41 patients, six to nine months following the surgery. RESULTS: The following pathological alterations have been found: hiatal hernia (17%), gastroesophageal reflux disease (19.5%) and sliding of the silastic ring (4.8%). Least frequent findings have been the following: enterocutaneous fistula (2.4%), stenosis of the gastric pouch outlet (2.4%), bezoar (2.4%), and non-visualization of the silastic ring caused by its removal due to patient intolerance (2.4%). Anatomical alterations resulting from the surgery have been clearly demonstrated. CONCLUSION: The present study could demonstrate anatomical alterations and complications resulting from Fobi-Capella surgery. OBJETIVO: Estudar os achados radiológicos encontrados na seriografia digestiva alta no pós-operatório tardio de cirurgia de Fobi-Capella. MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: Estudo radiológico de 41 pacientes realizado seis a nove meses após a cirurgia de Fobi-Capella. RESULTADOS: As alterações encontradas foram hérnia hiatal (17%), refluxo gastroesofágico (19,5%) e deslizamento do anel (4,8%). Os achados menos freqüentes foram fístula enterocutânea (2,4%), estenose da anastomose gastrojejunal (2,4%), bezoar (2,4%) e não-visualização do anel em decorrência da sua retirada por intolerância (2,4%). As alterações anatômicas da cirurgia foram claramente demonstradas. CONCLUSÃO: O estudo foi capaz de demonstrar as alterações anatômicas e as complicações da cirurgia de Fobi-Capella. |
