Obesity surgery is weight loss surgery applied to people who have clinical obesity problems and who are at risk for health problems related to this excess weight. Bariatric surgery, also called obesty surgery, is applied to patients who cannot lose weight to the targeted extent with diet and exercise. With obesity surgery, in some methods, the eating capacity of the person is reduced, while in some methods, the amount of food absorbed from the stomach and intestines is reduced. In some types of bariatric surgery, both procedures can be performed at the same time.

"Colorectal cancer starts in the colon or the rectum.”
These cancers can also be called colon cancer or rectal cancer, depending on where they start. Colon cancer and rectal cancer are often grouped together because they have many features in common. Cancer starts when cells in the body start to grow out of control.
“Proctology is the medical specialty that focuses on diseases of the colon, rectum and anus.”
Symptoms of diseases of this region are often similar. Eventually a physician is consulted and the usual diagnosis proposed by the patient is “It’s my hemorrhoids”. However, this may conceal a considerable spectrum of pathology.
“Obesity is a complex disease involving an excessive amount of body fat.”
Obesity isn’t just a cosmetic concern. It’s a medical problem that increases the risk of other diseases and health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and certain cancers.
“Stomach cancer happens when normal cells in the stomach change into abnormal cells and grow out of control.”
The stomach is part of the digestive system. There are different kinds of stomach cancer, depending on the type of cells and part of the stomach involved.
