A Brief History of Bariatric Surgery
Authors
More about the book
One expression characterizes the history of surgical treatments for obesity: a perpetual movement. Never at rest, they have constantly been put into question since their atypical beginnings and over bumps along a somewhat troubled road. The procedures have gained authentic medico-scientific merit over some 67 years, but controversy is still present: each time one thinks solid shores have been reached, new interrogations pop up, and obstacles arise. Nevertheless, we ought to embrace these mishaps and seek simple hopes to terminate a desperate epidemic too complex for our weak surgical hands.
