title: [What happens to the stomach after bariatric surgery?].
abstract: In France, indications for bariatric surgery are clearly defined in the recommendations issued by ANAES and medical societies. The number of surgical procedures performed in France, is currently estimated to be 10 to 12.000 per year, with a regular increase of the gastric banding technique, which represents now more than 75% of the procedures. This review presents the main surgical procedures, and particularly, insists on their post-operative complications and their prevention, diagnosis and management.
