title: Prospective diagnosis of marginal ulceration following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass with computed tomography.
abstract: Marginal ulcers are reported to be the most common complication following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. Despite their frequency, they are rarely diagnosed prospectively with cross-sectional imaging. We present four cases in which the diagnosis of marginal ulceration was made prospectively with CT and confirmed with endoscopy.
