What are the long term complications with gastric sleeve surgery?

The possible long term complications after gastric sleeve include:

  • dumping syndrome (leading to nausea or dizziness)
  • malnutrition
  • bowel obstruction
  • low blood sugar level
  • frequent vomiting
  • ulcers
  • hernias

Each of these complications is discussed with the surgeon before the procedure because patients must be aware of the fact that there is some risk of health issues that may happen long time after the surgery. Of course, the risk is very low as for gastric sleeve, yet some health problems may happen.
