Bariatric surgery is the most effective weight loss treatment available for morbidly obese patients. The majority of bariatric surgery cases are now performed on reproductive-aged women. The pregnant bariatric surgery patient is unique, with specific care needs that often require a multidisciplinary approach. Here, we will review the rationale for bariatric surgery and contemporary surgical modalities. We will then consider the obstetric and neonatal implications following these procedures and discuss the tenets of pregnancy care in the patient after bariatric surgery.
