“…This review focuses on understanding merits and demerits of each intervention and attempts to examine evidence base in support of each. We did not attempt to carry out a systematic review as several systematic reviews have already examined the evidence base for preoperative weight loss, the most commonly used preoperative intervention [2][3][4]. For other interventions, the body of evidence is so small that it would preclude any meaningful quantitative or qualitative synthesis of data.…”

“…In a retrospective analysis of 884 patients, Still et al (24) found that patients who lost >5% EBW preoperatively were more likely to have a shorter LoS compared to those with less pronounced weight loss. In a systematic review, Cassie et al (10) pooled data from five studies with heterogeneous designs and reported, based on their analysis, that the mean LoS after preoperative weight loss was 3.34 days compared to 3.98 days for the non-preoperative weight loss patients (p < 0.05). In these uncontrolled studies, LoS as a parameter obviously suffers from several biases, some of the most important being the time relationship between changes in routines for postoperative hospital stay and preoperative dietary recommendations, increased hospital volume and surgical skills.…”

“…Weight loss of 5 % of excess body weight or 10 % of total weight is associated with reduced liver volume and shortened operative time [54][55][56]. Whether preoperative weight loss has an impact on long-term outcomes such as postoperative weight loss and resolution of comorbidities is still unclear [57][58][59][60]. There is a concern that patients who are unable to lose some amount of weight prior to bariatric surgery will be unable to comply with medical advice and the necessary dietary restrictions after surgery.…”
