Bariatric surgery is a medical term for surgical procedures used to manage obesity and obesity-related conditions. Long-term weight loss with bariatric surgery may be achieved through alteration of gut hormones, physical reduction of stomach size, reduction of nutrient absorption, or a combination of these. Bariatric surgeons specialize in the surgical treatment of obesity.
