The issues presented in this text have particular relevance in our obesogenic society. Over one-third of the adult population in the United States suffers from obesity, and it is now apparent that this epidemic is progressively becoming global in scale. Lifestyle modification, dietary programs, and medical therapies have an important role, however, alone they are not adequate for many patients.

Bariatric surgery has provided an effective alternative for achieving durable weight loss in many patients with morbid obesity, and there are currently several types of surgery being employed for weight loss and the treatment of obesity associated comorbid illness. It is estimated that over 200,000 bariatric procedures are performed annually in the United States. The most common are Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy among others. Each of these surgeries may also have important variations, and are in turn associated with unique gastrointestinal complications. Additionally, there are new medications and emerging endobariatric therapies that are gaining wide acceptance, and offering less invasive alternatives to this struggling population.

This textbook on obesity management and bariatric endoscopy is the work of a multidisciplinary group of international experts and is intended to serve as a comprehensive guide to the endoscopic management of patients with obesity. It is divided into three main sections: I. Obesity Overview and Medical Management; II. Traditional Bariatric Surgery and Endoscopic Management of Complications; and III. Endoscopic Bariatric Therapies. Epidemiology, pharmacological and surgical treatment of obesity, surgical anatomy, post-operative complications, endoscopic treatment of complications, and endoscopic bariatric therapies are covered in-depth. In addition to thoroughly revised chapters from the previous edition, the latest volume includes more than 10 new chapters.

Clinical gastroenterologists, gastroenterologists in training, and surgeons with a special interest in obesity management will find this book to be of practical importance.

Dr. Thompson is Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School (HMS), Director of Endoscopy and Co-Director of the Center for Weight Management and Wellness at Brigham and Women’s Hospital (BWH), is Principal Investigator of the Developmental Endoscopy Lab and serves on the HMS admissions committee. He operates on the Governing Board of the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE), and is Editor-in-Chief for iGIE, the society’s new open access journal. Dr. Thompson’s academic and clinical efforts have consistently focused on three main areas (1) obesity and metabolic disease, (2) development of new endosurgical procedures and technologies, and (3) endoscopic training and assessment. He has invented numerous procedures, including Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG), Transoral Outlet Reduction (TORe), and Gastroplasty with Endoscopic Myotomy (GEM), and he has led several US pivotal trials. These projects have resulted in substantial Department of Defense and societal funding, numerous patents, the development and licensing of new technologies, over 250 peer-reviewed publications with an H-index of over 60, various innovation awards, and five successful start-up companies. He has served on advisory boards for industry partners, insurance companies, and investment banks, and has co-founded several societal ventures including the Natural Orifice Surgery Consortium for Assessment and Research (NOSCAR) and the Association for Bariatric Endoscopy (ABE). He has also mentored a diverse group of trainees who have gone on to leadership roles in major US and international academic centers, with one becoming a White House Fellow and another Chief Medical Officer for a Fortune 500 medical device company. Dr. Thompson recently had the honor of receiving the ASGE’s highest mentoring award, the Distinguished Endoscopic Research Mentoring Award. He also has been credited with being the founding father of the field of Bariatric Endoscopy, among other accolades.
