Procedures and devices for bariatric and metabolic endoscopy

Abstract: Obesity is a leading cause of preventable death in developed countries, with a rising incidence over time. Lifestyle modification, pharmacotherapy, and bariatric surgery are the mainstays of bariatric therapy, even though burdened by several limitations in terms of efficacy or safety. Bariatric endoscopy has been developed in the last decades as a minimally invasive alternative, aimed to bridge the gap between conservative and interventional conventional therapies. This review aims to provide an updated overvi… Show more

“…In the last decade, bariatric endoscopy procedures have emerged as a minimally invasive alternative to surgery. 96 Endoscopic therapies include duodenal and gastric devices, such as intragastric balloons. 97 98 Safety of these procedures is likely higher than that of surgery, but data in patients with advanced chronic liver disease/cirrhosis is lacking, and more research is needed to clarify the real risk and benefits in these patients.…”

“…Bariatric endoscopy encompasses an emerging group of minimally invasive endoscopic procedures used to achieve weight loss in obese patients by limiting caloric intake through mechanical restriction of the stomach (Table 4) (30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36)(37)(38). Like bariatric surgery, these procedures reduce the gastric capacity for ingested meals and promote early satiety, but are less invasive, require a shorter hospital stay, and can be performed in patients who are not surgical candidates (32).…”
