1 in 200 Deaths

My daughter is schedule for the surgery in 2 weeks and lately the
news has been drumming 1 in 200 deaths caused by gastric bypass
surgery. this is causing me to be more alarmed and concern. I
understand that there are no guarantees and surgery is a risk. But
the percentage of odds is too high. What contributes to the death of
someone who has undergone this procedure?
