Author Name Mr Akash Maurya and Dr.Jomet George Abstract Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are two interrelated health conditions that have reached pandemic proportions, particularly in industrialized nations. Both conditions are known to exacerbate one another, creating a vicious cycle of metabolic dysfunction, cardiovascular risk, and poor quality of life. The global rise in obesity rates has consequently driven up the incidence of T2DM, making it a significant public health concern. Bariatric or metabolic surgery has emerged as an effective intervention for patients suffering from both obesity and T2DM. Over the past few decades, substantial evidence has demonstrated that surgical intervention can not only facilitate weight loss but also result in significant improvements in glycemic control, often leading to complete remission of T2DM.
