    Gastrogastric intussusception can occur a decade after laparoscopic gastric greater curvature plication (LGCP), as demonstrated in a recent case report.

    The patient, a 31-year-old woman, experienced severe symptoms including vomiting and colic, leading to her diagnosis of intussusception.

    Laparoscopic exploration successfully reduced the intussusception, and the patient underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) as a corrective procedure.

    Postoperatively, the patient showed significant weight loss and improvement in hypertension and hyperlipidemia within ten months.

    This case highlights the potential long-term complications of LGCP and emphasizes the need for careful monitoring of patients post-surgery.
