CASE REPORT: A 40 year-old women developed a sensory motor neuropathy 3 months after a gastric restriction operation followed by a 30 kilograms weight loss. No specific vitamin or mineral deficiency was detected but she improved after multivitamin and minerals supplementation.

Its pathogenesis is not very clear but the most commonly associated factors are rapid weight loss and non-supplementation with vitamins and minerals post-operatively. |
