Endoscopy is essential in the assessment and treatment of the bariatric patient, especially in the postoperative state. Since bariatric surgery is increasing exponentially, endoscopists should be familiar with the anatomy and how to manage possible complications. New less invasive therapeutic tools will have a major impact on the prognosis of these patients. Dreaded complications such as leaks, stenosis or weight regain can be successfully assessed and treated by endoscopy. Postoperative evaluation of symptoms requires the precise search of details that can change patient's management.

Lutzomyia trinidadensis (Newstead, 1922), L. bettinii Feliciangeli, Ramírez-Pérez & Ramírez, 1988, L. flaviscutellata (Mangabeira, 1942), L. yuilli Young & Porter, 1972, L. saulensis (Floch & Abonnenc, 1944), L. runoides (Fairchild & Hertig, 1953), L. ayrozai (Barretto & Coutinho, 1940), L. claustrei Abonnenc, Leger & Fauran, 1979, L. walkeri (Newstead, 1914), L. preclara Young & Arias, 1984, L. (geniculata) sp., L. (squamiventris) sp., and L. (Evandromyia) sp., are recorded for the first time in the department of Vichada, Colombia. In addition, the presence of L. antunesi (Coutinho, 1939) and L. aragaoi (Costa Lima, 1932) in this department is confirmed. Sand flies were collected in the municipalities of Puerto Carreño, Cumaribo, and La Primavera, using CDC light traps, Shannon trap, and human bait, and by active search in resting places. The epidemiological importance of these sand fly species is discussed in relation with the cutaneous leishmaniasis.

Se informa el primer hallazgo de Lutzomyia trinidadensis (Newstead, 1922), L. bettinii Feliciangeli, Ramírez-Pérez & Ramírez, 1988, L. flaviscutellata (Mangabeira, 1942), L. yuilli Young & Porter, 1972, L. saulensis (Floch & Abonnenc, 1944), L. runoides (Fairchild & Hertig, 1953), L. ayrozai (Barretto & Coutinho, 1940), L. claustrei Abonnenc, Leger & Fauran, 1979, L. walkeri (Newstead, 1914), L. preclara Young & Arias, 1984, L. (geniculata) sp., L. (squamiventris) sp., y L. (Evandromyia) sp., en el departamento de Vichada, Colombia. También se confirma la presencia de L. antunesi (Coutinho, 1939) y L. aragaoi (Costa Lima, 1932) en este departamento. Los flebotomíneos fueron recolectados en los municipios de Puerto Carreño, Cumaribo, y La Primavera, con trampas de luz tipo CDC, trampa Shannon y atrayente humano, y mediante búsqueda activa en lugares de reposo. Se discute la importancia epidemiológica de estas especies de flebotomíneos en relación con la leishmaniosis cutánea.
