La Obesidad Sarcopénica es el descenso de la masa muscular que acontece a lo largo del proceso de envejecimiento no es un fenómeno aislado, sino que está fuertemente ligado a un paralelo aumento de la masa grasa. Se demostró la prevalencia en pacientes >65 años con diagnóstico con Obesidad Sarcopénica en la consulta externa del Hospital Universitario de Guayaquil en el periodo Julio 2013 a Julio 2014. El presente estudio fue de tipo descriptivo, restrospectivo, de corte transversal. Resultados: De la muestra Investigada (166) se determinó que la prevalencia en un año fue del 13%, el mes de mayor prevalencia en general fue Julio del2013 con 21 pacientes diagnosticados, las complicaciones biomecánicas más frecuentes fueron Artrosis no especificada con un 44% (73 casos), seguido de otras artrosis con un 28% (46 casos). Las comorbilidades más frecuente que encontramos fueron la Hipertensión arterial con un 28% (69 casos), seguido de Diabetes con un 25% (61 casos). La provincia que presentó el mayor número de pacientes fue el Guayas con el 94% (154 casos), el 86% (143 casos) procedían de área urbana. De los pacientes investigados el 87% (145 casos) correspondió al género femenino, el 54% (89 casos) corresponden al grupo etario entre 65 y 69 años. El IMC que predominó fue el moderado 84% (139 casos), y apenas el 2% (4 casos) corresponde al riesgo muy elevado u Obesidad Mórbida
