Abstract. Obese patients have an increased prevalence of risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD), which are improved by bariatric surgery, but whether bariatric surgery reduces long-term cardiovascular events remains unclear. This study examines the impact of bariatric surgery on the reduction of cardiac risk factors, which, in turn, protects the heart from premature death.
