''[[Bariatric surgery]]'' (or "weight loss surgery") is the use of surgical interventions in the treatment of obesity. As every surgical intervention may lead to complications, it is regarded as a last resort when dietary modification and pharmacological treatment have proven to be unsuccessful. Weight loss surgery relies on various principles; the most common approaches are reducing the volume of the stomach, producing an earlier sense of satiation (e.g. by [[adjustable gastric band]]ing and [[Vertical banded gastroplasty surgery|vertical banded gastroplasty]]) while others also reduce the length of bowel that food will be in contact with, directly reducing absorption ([[gastric bypass surgery]]). Band surgery is reversible, while bowel shortening operations are not. Some procedures can be performed [[laparoscopic surgery|laparoscopically]]. Complications from weight loss surgery are frequent.<ref name="pmid16862031">{{cite journal |author=Encinosa WE, Bernard DM, Chen CC, Steiner CA |title=Healthcare utilization and outcomes after bariatric surgery |journal=Medical care |volume=44 |issue=8 |pages=706-12 |year=2006 |pmid=16862031 |doi=10.1097/01.mlr.0000220833.89050.ed}}</ref>

Bariatric Surgery

Bariatric surgery (or "weight loss surgery") is the use of surgical interventions in the treatment of obesity. As every surgical intervention may lead to complications, it is regarded as a last resort when dietary modification and pharmacological treatment have proven to be unsuccessful. Weight loss surgery relies on various principles; the most common approaches are reducing the volume of the stomach, producing an earlier sense of satiation (e.g. by adjustable gastric banding and vertical banded gastroplasty) while others also reduce the length of bowel that food will be in contact with, directly reducing absorption (gastric bypass surgery). Band surgery is reversible, while bowel shortening operations are not. Some procedures can be performed laparoscopically. Complications from weight loss surgery are frequent.[1]

Two large studies have demonstrated a mortality benefit from bariatric surgery. A marked decrease in the risk of diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease and cancer.[2][3] Weight loss was most marked in the first few months after surgery, but the benefit was sustained in the longer term. In one study there was an unexplained increase in deaths from accidents and suicide that did not outweigh the benefit in terms of disease prevention. Gastric bypass surgery was about twice as effective as banding procedures.[3]
