ABSTRACT
In China, the prevalence of overweight and obesity among adults is 34.3% and 16.4% respectively. Bariatric/metabolic surgery can effectively relieve morbid obesity by limiting nutrient absorption or regulating metabolism, consequently reducing obesity-related complications such as type 2 diabetes and hypertension and improving the quality of life for patients. Currently, the mainstream surgical methods are sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, etc. Other new exploratory surgical methods, including combined laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, intragastric balloon, etc., are also undergoing continuous development. Here we reviewed the evolution of mainstream and emerging exploratory methods for bariatric/metabolic surgeries and discussed the merits and limitations of individual surgical methods, in aim to provide clinicians with more options for individualized treatment strategy for patients.
