Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

There is currently a worldwide epidemic of obesity, and metabolic bariatric surgery is the optimal treatment for severe obesity. Robotic surgery is the latest advancement in the area of minimally invasive surgery. The use of the robot allows surgeons to perform complicated and long-lasting procedures with greater precision and improved ergonomics. This new surgical approach is also gaining success in the field of obesity surgery. However, few articles have been published on this topic. The aim of this Special Issue is to collect evidence from reviews and original articles showing the benefits or the pitfalls of robotic bariatric surgery.

Revisional metabolic and bariatric surgery (RMBS) presents unique challenges in addressing weight loss failure or complications arising from initial bariatric procedures. This review aims to explore the complexities and solutions associated with revisional bariatric procedures comprehensively, offering insights into the evolving terrain of metabolic and bariatric surgery. A literature review is conducted to identify pertinent studies and expert opinions regarding RMBS. Methodological approaches, patient selection criteria, surgical techniques, preoperative assessments, and postoperative management strategies are synthesized to provide a comprehensive overview of current practices and advancements in the field, including institutional protocols. This review synthesizes key findings regarding the challenges encountered in RMBS, including the underlying causes of primary procedure failure, anatomical complexities, technical considerations, and assessments of surgical outcomes. Additionally, patient outcomes, complication rates, and long-term success are presented, along with institutional approaches to patient assessment and procedure selection. This review provides valuable insights for clinicians grappling with the complexities of RMBS. A comprehensive understanding of patient selection, surgical techniques, preoperative management, and postoperative care is crucial for enhancing outcomes and ensuring patient satisfaction in the field of metabolic bariatric surgery.
