who have failed to lose weight by diet, exercise and
pharmacological methods. The editors review problems that the
patients face in the perioperative period and in the long term, as
well as their adjustments in lifestyle and healthcare
management.The text is authored by authorities who participate in
the multidisciplinary care of bariatric patients. It will address
the assessment and selection of patients' treatment before surgery,
options for surgical intervention and postoperative medical
management.
