“…In a recent study, the number of females (n = 66) who underwent bariatric surgery was more than males (n = 46) [43]; which was similarly reported in another Saudi study showing a higher number of female participants (61.43%) when compared to males (38.7%) [44]. A study by Hult et al (2019) shows that the main reasons for women to undergo bariatric surgery are seeking weight loss and improving selfesteem [45].…”

Obesity in childbearing women leads to pregnancy-related complications such as gestational diabetes mellitus, pregnancy-associated hypertensive disorders, and macrosomia. Weight loss helps reduce these complications. Studies show bariatric surgery reduces obesity-related complications during and after pregnancy. However, bariatric surgery might be associated with adverse outcomes, such as low birth weight and small-for-gestational-age infants. In addition, several studies suggest pregnancy occurring less than a year post-bariatric surgery adversely affects pregnancy outcomes and causes micronutrients deficiency since the dramatic weight loss occurs in the first year. These adverse outcomes may lead to nutritional malabsorption, such as anemia and low vitamin B12 and folic acid levels. The review aims to overview obesity-related complications during pregnancy and the benefits and risks of bariatric surgery on pregnancy outcomes and maternal nutrition status. Graphical abstract

The increasing prevalence of obesity all over world has led to a growing number of metabolic and bariatric surgeries. Bariatric surgery is more effective for weight loss than medical therapy, with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) being considered the gold standard of care over the past decade. Bariatric surgery and the subsequent weight loss are associated with an increased risk for the development of gallstone formation. Common bile duct stones prevalence around 10% among patients with symptomatic gallbladder stones. Choledocholithiasis can be technically challenging problem to treat in patients post-laparoscopic RYGB (LRYGB) or a biliopancreatic diversion (BPD/DS) due to the altered upper gastrointestinal anatomy. This review describes the different treatment options of common bile duct stones after malabsorptive bariatric surgery, success rate, and adverse effects of each treatment modality including enteroscopy-assisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (EA-ERCP), percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC), endoscopic ultrasound-directed transgastric retrograde cholangiopancreatography (EDGE), and laparoscopic-assisted ERCP (LAERCP).

“…In contrast, bariatric surgeries are more effective for weight loss and have been associated with a significant reduction in comorbidities [ 3 ]. The International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Disorders (IFSO) showed that more than 833,000 bariatric surgeries had been performed worldwide in 2019 [ 4 ]. According to the Saudi Journal of Obesity, approximately 15,000 bariatric surgeries are performed every year in Saudi Arabia [ 5 , 6 ].…”

“…Several bariatric surgeries are available. The most frequently performed bariatric surgeries worldwide are sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) [ 4 ]. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) involves subtotal vertical gastrectomy with conservation of the pylorus, including longitudinal removal of the fundus, corpus, and antrum, to create a cylindrical duct along the lesser curvature [ 7 ].…”

Obesity can promote several metabolic, cardiovascular, and musculoskeletal complications and has been associated with poor quality of life. The treatment of obesity can range from simple lifestyle modifications or medications to complicated bariatric surgeries. Although bariatric surgery has been a proven treatment for morbid obesity, it has also been associated with multiple consequences and complications. Several reports and studies have revealed bone loss or decreased bone mineral density (BMD), fractures, or even several metabolic bone diseases, such as osteoporosis, following bariatric surgery. This case report aims to increase awareness on postoperative patient supplementation compliance and incorporation of early detection and intervention. This case report involves a 39-year-old male who underwent laparoscopic biliopancreatic diversion 10 years prior to presentation. The patient was not compliant with his supplements for over nine years, which lead to multiple fragility fractures, myopathy, and muscle atrophy due to hypocalcemia, vitamin D deficiency, hyperparathyroidism, and other electrolyte disturbances. He has since been treated with supplements and physiotherapy for 10 months and showed clinical improvement. This case report highlights the importance of pre-and postoperative screening of bone loss risks and any vitamin or mineral deficiencies with subsequent correction via supplements. Moreover, it emphasizes the need for more studies on the complications of late post-bariatric surgeries.
