Background: Obesity is associated with a variety of chronic illnesses such as diabetes mellitus (DM), cardiovascular disease (CVD), steatotic liver disease, and cancer. Bariatric surgery, most frequently Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG), is an efficient therapeutic option for obesity and could help with accompanying co-morbidities. The number of bariatric approaches has increased over the last 20 years in response to the growing obesity epidemic. SG is the most often done bariatric surgery today, and while it serves as a long-term choice for certain cases, it is crucial to remember that various complications may develop.
