Abstract

Compared with general patients undergoing surgery, the patients with severe obesity are often accompanied by obesity-related diseases, which calls for more evaluation and preparation at full-scale. This article mainly illuminates the perioperative procedure of diagnosis and treatment, the preoperative evaluation and preparation performed by other related departments, and the postoperative management and follow-up for severe obesity patients.
