Outcomes of a novel bariatric stent in the management of sleeve gastrectomy leaks: a multicenter study

-Despite satisfactory clinical results associated with bariatric surgery in the treatment of obesity, the number of complications has increased due to broad adoption of the procedure-A novel large-caliber fully-covered stent specifically designed for sleeve leaks appears to be effective at treating acute and early leaks-The large flanges and long stent length of this novel large-caliber fully-covered stent specifically designed for sleeve leaks do not appear to reduce migration rate-Post-pyloric POST position is associated with a higher incidence of migration and should be avoided.
