Abstract

There is sparse literature on the development of malignancy in remnant gastric stomach after bariatric Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. We report a case of overt upper gastrointestinal bleeding from malignant adenocarcinoma in the remnant stomach presenting several years after bariatric Roux-En-Y gastric bypass surgery. The mass in the remnant stomach was surgically resected, and the patient was subsequently diagnosed with Lynch syndrome on genetic analysis.
