Abstract
The combination of gastric bypass, colectomia, lack of substitution with minerals and vitamins, and alcohol consumption led to severe complications in a 57-year-old man. He was submitted to different hospitals 25 times and seen in polyclinics 39 times with no improvement in symptoms of postprandial neurohypoglycaemia, ortostatic hypotension and pronounced hypocalcaemia. The importance of frequent controls after gastric bypass in centres with specialists knowing the common complications after the operation and the need for nutritionel supplements is hereby emphasised.
