Abstract EN
Metabolic surgery is the most effective treatment for morbid obesity.
Ghrelin has been implicated to play a role in the success of these procedures.
Furthermore, these operations have been used to study the gut-brain axis.
This article explores this interaction, reviewing the available data on changes in ghrelin levels after different surgical procedures.
