Grade III obesity is a multifactorial and chronic disorder associated with great damage to individual health. Due to its severity and difficult management, new treatment strategies are being proposed, with special attention to bariatric surgery. The objective of this study is to present an overview of the surgical techniques, clinical, and psychiatric aspects related to the surgical treatment of obesity. Since morbid obesity is associated with several clinical complications and increased psychopathology, a careful multidisciplinary approach is necessary to reduce possible complications related to obesity surgery.
