YES!! Hello.
My original surgery was Lap RNY in 2000. I had a silastic ring. The ring eroded and caused an ulce and in turn caused a gastric fistula.
In Oct I had a revision of the RNY. My surgeon repaired the fistula and re-ded the pouch.
I lost the 40 lbs that I had regained.
Write back if you have any questions. more than happy to answer all.
Good luck!
