Abstract
Obesity represents a significant global health problem, and reducing its alarmingly high incidence is an urgent challenge. The intragastric balloon is a safe and effective device for weight loss; therefore, it is widely used. Although the frequency of serious complications resulting from its use is low, it is not exempt from them. We would like to present a case of a severe but infrequent complication secondary to this device, with the aim of highlighting the most appropriate procedure in such cases and emphasizing the importance of awareness regarding it.
