Bariatric surgery is an effective method of fighting morbid obesity

Based on the definition of obesity as a chronic, recurrent disease characterized by excessive deposition of adipose tissue in the body, it is obvious and understandable that the effectiveness of treatment is low, when in 95% of cases, it is not possible to reduce body weight for a long-term period, and a significant part of patients tend to return to initial body weight already in the first year after cessation of therapy. When all diets, psychotherapy and other attempts, including drug treatment, do not bring a special positive result, bariatric surgery methods come to the doctor and the patient’s aid. To date, bariatric surgery has been recognized as the most effective and radical method of treating morbid obesity. Bariatric surgery can lead to impressive results in terms of weight loss and improved health outcomes for patients. This type of surgery has become widespread today, and the number of operations and specialists in this field is growing every year.
