One of the most common complications after and MGB surgery is the occurrence of gastric ulcers and main manifestation of the anastomotic marginal ulcers (MU) is the perforation. The treatment of the perforated peptic ulcer can be performed via laparoscopic or laparotomic approach. The main objective, regardless of the method used to access the abdominal cavity, is to identify and close the perforation.CONCLUSION:
