Abstract
 
Background: As a major global public health concern, obesity is related to a number of hormonal comorbidities as well as a lower quality of life in older children and adults. Weight loss with bariatric surgery has proven to be a successful intervention. Few reports exist on hormonal and osteoarthritis comorbidities in Al-Madinah Region (western Saudi Arabia) before and after bariatric surgery.
Objectives: This study aimed at determining the prevalence of hormonal and joint co-morbidities in obese patients before and after bariatric surgery in Al-Madinah region.
Patients and methods: In older children (14-16 year) and adults, a retrospective analysis was carried out using data on hormonal co-morbidities prevalence as hypothyroidism, polycystic ovary syndrome and hyperprolactinemia in addition to joint osteoarthritis and quality of life post-bariatric surgery compared to the original conditions.
Results: A total of 170 patients were included in this study. Statistically significant differences were observed in the prevalence of hypothyroidism using chi square test (p<0.05) (35 patients, 20.5% of the studied sample significantly decreased after bariatric surgery to 17 patients only, 10.0% of the studied sample) and polycystic ovary (23 individuals 13.5% of the sample under study dramatically dropped to 6 patients only, 3.5%) chi square test (p<0.01). Prevalence of hyperprolactinemia and joint osteoarthritis decreased strongly but not significantly after bariatric surgery. Quality of life improved after bariatric surgery.
Conclusion: The prevalence of hormonal and joint co-morbidities declined after bariatric surgery while quality of life improved. This supports the advantages of bariatric surgery and obesity management while considering these comorbidities.
