Popis: Key Clinical Message Although gastro‐pleural fistulas after bariatric surgeries are rare, they are life‐threatening complications that should be suspected in patients who present with gastrointestinal or respiratory symptoms after bariatric surgery. Abstract Previous studies showed an incidence rate of 0.2%–0.37% for gastro‐pleural fistulas after bariatric surgery. We report a 56‐year‐old female with a rare presentation of gastro‐pleural fistula after Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass, simultaneous fistula of the gastric pouch, and remnant to the pleural space.
