Intragastric balloon treatment might be a therapeutic option in the above-mentioned cases. It can prime super-obese patients with end-stage disease for bariatric surgery. As a neoadjuvant therapy before surgery, it leads to a downstage of the disease by preliminary weight reduction, to an improvement in general health and, in summary, to a reduction of the perioperative risk. It is generally considered to be a safe method. However, due to the wide range of possible complications and unusual symptoms after intragastric balloon treatment, an interdisciplinary, instead of only a surgical or endoscopic, treatment and follow-up might be recommended in these patients. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Case Report: &lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt;We here describe a potential life-threatening complication in the form of gastric bleeding as a consequence of intragastric balloon treatment and simultaneous aspirin taking and &lt;i&gt;Helicobacter pylori &lt;\/i&gt;infection. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusion: &lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt;There have been reports of some complications of intragastric balloon treatment. However, to the best of our knowledge there were no reports concerning life-threatening hemorrhage from gastric ulcer.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000456666","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,25]],"date-time":"2017-04-25T21:01:53Z","timestamp":1493154113000},"page":"153-159","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Gastric Ulcer Hemorrhage - a Potential Life-Threatening Complication of Intragastric Balloon Treatment of Obesity"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Aleksandra","family":"Mojkowska","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Stefan","family":"Gazdzinski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mariusz","family":"Fraczek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mariusz","family":"Wyle\u017co\u0142","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/14651858.CD003641.pub4"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11695-013-1160-3"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11695-011-0571-2"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5114\/wiitm.2015.55748"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12967-015-0607-9"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.soard.2015.10.074"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11695-009-9820-z"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5114\/wiitm.2015.54047"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11695-013-1027-7"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0034-1390860"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11695-009-0010-9"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.soard.2009.11.013"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.clinre.2011.06.002"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5114\/wiitm.2011.38177"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000151287"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.orcp.2015.08.003"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1381\/0960892055002202"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.soard.2006.11.001"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11695-008-9706-5"},{"key":"ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.1995.03520290028018"},{"key":"ref21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3904\/kjim.2015.30.5.559"},{"key":"ref22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13054-015-1107-2"},{"key":"ref23","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.burns.2014.08.005"},{"key":"ref24","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/1793-5482.154976"},{"key":"ref25","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000323958"},{"key":"ref26","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4292\/wjgpt.v6.i4.172"}],"container-title":["Obesity Facts"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/456666","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/456666","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/456666","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T17:19:54Z","timestamp":1745428794000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000456666"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017]]},"references-count":26,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,28]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000456666","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1662-4025","1662-4033"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"1662-4025"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1662-4033"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017]]}}}
