Abstract: Obesity is one of the most prevalent chronic conditions today, representing a significant public health problem. Conservative measures, strict diet and physical activity rarely achieve a good result, while bariatric surgery has become the treatment of choice for cases of morbid obesity, showing encouraging results. Several techniques have emerged that have proven effective, which have presented late complications, requiring a new surgical approach.
