Summary

Patients presenting intra-abdominal abcesses following bariatric surgery complicated by fistulae are classically treated by external drainage and endoprosthesis or surgical redo. Morbidity and mortality being increased in case of necrotic collections, an endoscopic debridement treatment might be proposed in certain cases. This present study aim to review the evolution of the patients treated by this method from 2007 to 2011 in the investigators institution.
