Qualité de vie des patients obèses relevant d'un traitement chirurgical comparée à celle d'une population témoin

The quality of life in morbidly obese and super obese patients is significantly diminished from that of a control population. There was good correlation between the degree of obesity (BMI) and the alteration of the GIQLI global and subscales scores. Quality of life should be systematically evaluated before and after both medical and surgical therapy.
