Abstract

Bariatric surgery has been the solution to many obesity problems worldwide. Among the most frequent surgical procedures are gastric bypass, vertical gastrectomy, and adjustable gastric band. This is how bariatric surgeries achieve weight loss and also allow for better control of comorbidities than with pharmacological therapy alone. However, despite advances in these surgical procedures, these surgeries present both immediate and late complications. Objective: To determine the prevalence of metabolic * disorders in patients aged 25 to 55 who underwent restrictive or malabsorptive surgical procedures at Regional Hospital 2 "Dr. Teodoro Maldonado Carbo" during the years 2018- 2022. Materials and methods: An observational, retrospective, longitudinal, and descriptive study is conducted on 100 patients aged 25 to 55 who underwent restrictive or malabsorptive surgical procedures at "Teodoro Maldonado Carbo" Hospital during the years 2018-2022.
