“…The skin's sensory function is reduced in the skin of the morbidly obese [16], independent of whether or not they are diabetic or whether or not they have been diagnosed with a peripheral neuropathy [17]. It is suspected that a similar situation is present in morbidly exobese patients [34]. To prove or negate this suspicion, the present study focused on abdominal skin because it is the main area where post-bariatric surgery is performed and it is also the area about which the morbidly ex-obese most often complain.…”
