Abstract
Background: Obesity, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and bariatric metabolic surgery (BMS) are increasingly common conditions during pregnancy.
Summary: However, clinical knowledge regarding GDM that occurs after BMS remains full of uncertainties. Given its prevalence and potential consequences for the dyad pregnant and offspring, it is imperative to increase knowledge about GDM after BMS, define diagnostic criteria and consequently strategies capable of improving pregnancy outcomes.
Key messages: This paper aimed to review GDM screening methods after BMS and gives insights regarding new paths of research on this paramount obstetric condition.
