Obesity has been defined as excess
body fat relative to lean body mass.
 The most widely accepted measure of
obesity is the body mass index (BMI).
 BMI= Patient’s weight in kg / square
of patient’s height in meters (kg/m²).
 A normal BMI ranges from 18.5 to
24.9 kg/m²

25-29.9 = overweight.
≥30 = obesity.
≥35 = severe obesity.
≥40 = morbid obesity.

The American Heart Association and the National
Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute recommend that
the metabolic syndrome be identified as the
presence of three or more of:
Elevated waist circumference:
Men —Equal to or greater than 40 inches (102 cm)
Women — Equal to or greater than 35 inches (88
cm)
Elevated triglycerides:
Equal to or greater than 150 mg/dL

Reduced HDL (“good”) cholesterol:
Men — Less than 40 mg/dL
Women — Less than 50 mg/dL

Elevated blood pressure:
Equal to or greater than 130/85 mm Hg

FBS equal or greater than 100mg/dL

Morbidly obese patients are classified
according to area of main fat mass:
Peripheral (Gynecoid) obesity: associated
with degenerative joint disease and venous
stasis in the lower extremities.
Central (Android) obesity: associated with
the highest risk of mortality related
problems due to the “Metabolic Syndrome”
as well as increased intra-abdominal
pressure.

causes weight loss.

guarantee weight loss

Commitment to post-operative follow up.
1- Restrictive procedures:
A)Vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG)
B) Adjustable gastric banding (AGB)
C) Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG)
2- Malabsorptive procedures :
A) Roux en Y Gastric bypass(RYGBP)
B) Minigastric bypass

The aim of bariatric surgery is to induce weight
loss that is sufficient to reduce obesity-related
morbidities to acceptable levels.
Loss of visceral fat is associated with improved
insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism , also
reduces intra-abdominal pressure and this
change may result in improvement in urinary
incontinence, gastroesophageal reflux, systemic
hypertension, venous stasis disease, and
hypoventilation.

70-80% IMROVEMENT OF CO-MORBIDITIES :
- TYPE 2 DM.
- HYPERTESION.
- DYSLIPIDAEMIA.
- HYPERURICAEMIA.
- SLEEP APNOEA.
- CARDIAC RISK.
- CANCER RISK.
- GERD.
- PCOS.
QUALITY OF LIFE:
- SOCIAL.
- WORK.
- SEXUAL.
- PSYCHOLOGICAL
 IT WAS FOUND THAT THESE POSITIVE
CHANGES START (& PERSIST) AS EARLY
AS WHEN 10% EWL OCCURS.
