Bariatric surgery has undergone significant change in the past several decades. There are now several attractive surgical options for the management of clinically severe obesity (body mass index > 40 kg/m2). Gastric restrictive procedures predominate and have been performed with acceptable complication rates. Long-term weight loss is frequently > 50% excess weight with amelioration of obesity-related illnesses. Laparoscopic approaches are increasingly popular. Patient selection and appropriate follow-up remain challenging aspects of patient care. In summary, bariatric surgery is a reliable option for the surgical management of clinically severe obese patients.
