International Conference on Bariatric Surgery and Obesity Treatment (ICBSOT - 27)

About the event

• Advanced Surgical Techniques: Evaluating the safety, long-term efficacy, and execution of modern bariatric procedures, including gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, single-incision surgeries, and robotic-assisted techniques. • Revision and Complex Bariatric Surgery: Protocols for managing post-operative complications, dealing with anatomical failures, and executing complex secondary or revisional procedures. • Surgical-Adjacent and Endoscopic Interventions: Exploring minimally invasive options like endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty, gastric balloons, and other emerging device-driven treatments. • Pharmacotherapy Integration: Learning how to pair anti-obesity medications (such as GLP-1/GIP receptor agonists) with surgical intervention to combat weight regain or optimize pre-surgical weight loss. • Long-Term Nutritional and Metabolic Care: Managing post-surgical micronutrient deficiencies, preventing muscle wasting, and adjusting long-term medical nutrition therapy. • Psychological and Behavioral Support: Implementing pre-surgical psychological evaluations, addressing eating disorders (like binge eating disorder), and supporting long-term lifestyle modifications. • Resolution of Metabolic Co-morbidities: Tracking the physiological mechanisms behind the rapid remission of Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and sleep apnea post-surgery.
