A serious complication after gastric bypass is a leak. Leaks can happen anywhere in the stomach or intestines. Your GI Tract (mouth, esophagus, stomach, intestines, and colon) is one continuous tube. During gastric bypass surgery, the tube is cut and sewn to re-arrange the bowel.
Gastric bypass is considered a safe procedure. The average complication rate is 5.9% in the first 30 days after laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery (MBSQAIP). And the risk of death is similar to the risk of death with common surgical procedures such as gallbladder removal.
