Worldwide, morbid obesity incidence has increased dramatically in the last decade and surgery is at this moment recognized as the only effective treatment with long-term sustained weight loss and resolution or significant improvement in comorbidities. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) was successfully carried out by several groups as a bridge to future laparoscopic bariatric procedures with acceptable weight loss and reduction in comorbidities. LSG is considered a safe procedure with sporadically reported complications, such as bleeding or leakage from the staple line, strictures, delayed gastric emptying, gastric dilatation and vomiting. The aim of this publication is to describe complications of this procedure analyze different treatments of these events especially the surgical ones, reporting the technical management based on our experience and on the literature.
