Sara Gaafar Ibnauf Suliman: The Changing Role of Bariatric Surgery in the GLP-1 Era
Sara Gaafar Ibnauf Suliman, President of Obesity Medicine Section at IFSO International Federation for the Surgery and other therapies for Obesity (IFSO), shared a post on LinkedIn:
“GLP1 receptor agonist usage has expanded exponentially, making some question the role of metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) in the management of obesity.
In this article published today in the The Lancet Obstetrics, Gynaecology, and Women’s Health we present a balanced view on why both MBS and GLP1RAs have an important role to play in the management of obesity and particularly in women.”
Title: Obesity medications in women’s health: is metabolic bariatric surgery still relevant?
