Resumo(s)
We present the clinical case of
a 16 year-old boy with excess body
weight (weight-98 kg, height-1,68 m and
IBM=34,7) and hypertension (136/60
mmHg). Laboratory tests of blood and
urine were normal as was the abdominal ultrasound examination. We perform an
upper endoscopy and introduced an intragastric
balloon that is shown in the picture.
Six months later the boy lost twelve
kilograms and normalized the arterial
pressure. The balloon was removed.
