Abstract

BACKGROUND: Since 2014, the International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Disorders (IFSO) has produced an annual report of all bariatric surgery submitted to the Global Registry. We describe baseline demographics of international practice from the 4th report.

METHODS: The IFSO Global Registry amalgamated data from 51 different countries, 14 of which provided data from their national registries. Data were available from 394,431 individual records, of which 190,177 were primary operations performed since 2014.

RESULTS: Data were submitted on 72,645 Roux en Y gastric bypass operations (38.2%), 87,467 sleeve gastrectomy operations (46.0%), 14,516 one anastomosis gastric bypass procedures (7.6%) and 9534 gastric banding operations (5.0%) as the primary operation since 2014. The median patient body mass index (BMI) pre-surgery was 41.7 kg m

CONCLUSIONS: A global description of patients undergoing bariatric surgery is emerging. Future iterations of the registry have the potential to describe the operated patients comprehensively.
