Weight-Loss Surgery Successful in Treating Overweight Adolescents, Study Suggests

Not the point, of course. Unnecessary removal of both legs will treat toenail fungus.
"Bariatric surgery" refers to several different surgical procedures designed to assist weight loss by limiting the amount of food someone eats or the amount they absorb during digestion. It has been used for several years to treat obesity in adults. A new study published in the journal Clinical Obesity reveals that bariatric surgery can result in significant weight loss in severely obese adolescents.
Bariatric surgery is not needed and is to be performed only when other weight loss attempts have failed.

The problem arises because fat people are not told that the diet on which they were placed was impossible. (e.g., see here, here and here)

Bariatric surgery, IMHO, remains malpractice in nearly all instances.
