Material and Method: Sixty-two morbidly obese patients underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. All patients were required to have psychological, routine laboratory examination, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, pulmonary function studies and a medical evaluation. All patients were preoperatively evaluated by a dietician. The procedure was performed by a standard technique. Results: A total of 62 patients (43 females, 19 males) underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Four of the 62 patients (1 male, 3 female) were admitted with a complaint of nausea, vomiting and liquid intolerans 7 to 10 days after discharge. Upper gastrointestinal contrast swallov study revealed “Kinking”of the remnant stomach. Conclusion: Kinking is a complication to be known and rather than management, prevention of this complication must be supplied by further efforts. <br> </p>}, number={2}
