<br/><br/> Obesity is considered one of the most common global health problems . There are a lot of bariatric surgeries to achieve the desirable weight loss . These operations are classified as either restrictive or malabsorptive , restrictive procedures limit intake by creating a small gastric reservoir with a narrow outlet to delay emptying , malabsorptive procedures bypass varying portions of the small intestine where nutrient absorption occurs
