Brief description/objective
Marginal ulcers are an acid-related complication of laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Few cases of acute perforation have been described, and there are few reports on viable surgical management. This case report demonstrates a two-step surgical procedure for treating a perforated late marginal ulcer in a patient with sepsis.
