Abstract
The 2008 Interdisciplinary european guidelines on surgery of severe obesity were updated in 2013 at the occasion of the European congress on obesity (ECO) held in Liverpool. These guidelines focused for the first time on the concept of metabolic surgery and the use of bariatric surgery in non-massively obese patients with type 2 diabetes. Specificity of bariatric surgery in children/adolescents was also discussed. The need of multidisciplinary evaluation before and after the surgery was also emphasized.
