[INTRAGASTRIC MIGRATION OF CLIPS. A NEW COMPLICATIONOF LAPAROSCOPIC VAGOTOMY]
Since 1989, when Kathdouda, M. D. and Mouiel, M. D. performed a laparoscopic vagotomy following the Taylor technique, there have been several reports of duodenal peptic ulcer laparoscopic treatment through different methods of vagotomy, from the trouncular to the supraselective or any of their varieties, as Taylor and Hill-Baker procedures. With the appearance of this new form of surgery, new complications are expected. This study reports the intragastrical migration of clips as a complication not yet reported. The possible etiopathogenic factors that could have influenced the appearance of such complication, are here discussed.
