Is there a 1% risk of the portioned stomach reattaching to the pouch?

I was informed that I must undergo a revision due to the pouch forming a "connection" to the by-passed portion of the stomach, similar to when fallopian tubes grow back together after a sterilization procedure. Has anyone ever heard of this. My surgeoan states a 1% risk of this occuring.
