Bariatric surgery or in simple terms “weight loss surgery” is a recent revelation in the field of surgery as well as weight management. In cases where an obese patient fails to lose weight due to genetic or environmental factors, due to which he/she is likely to face health complications; bariatric surgery is recommended. The idea behind this surgery is limiting the intake of food in the patient by reducing the size of the stomach with the help of gastric banding.
