Abstract

Obesity is one of the most difficult medical conditions to treat in the United States (US) and requires multidisciplinary treatment. Bariatric surgery is one of the most effective treatment options for morbid obesity. In this review, we describe the most up-to-date information regarding the impact of obesity on cardiovascular disease and other comorbidities as well as the various surgical approaches for treatment.
