Prevalence Of Obesity

With the rising prevalence of obesity, bariatric surgery has become an increasingly popular treatment option. However, bariatric surgery can contribute to esophageal dysmotility and lead to worsening or development of GERD, two conditions that are already frequently seen in the obese population. We review the effects of the various types of bariatric surgeries on the esophagus, specifically focusing on sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding.
