Resumen
La obesidad mórbida se denomina a un proceso patológico de desarrollo insidioso, con una etiología multifactorial y de difícil tratamiento que ha aumentado de manera incontrolable su prevalencia, al punto de volverse epidémica en muchos países de forma global en los últimos 20 años. Múltiples estudios la definen actualmente, como una desproporción marcada entre el peso y la talla del paciente, la cual se determina de mejor manera con un índice de masa corporal que supera los 30kg/m2. A lo largo de las últimas décadas, la obesidad pasó de ser una condición patológica exclusiva de personas con elevada capacidad económica a desarrollarse indiscriminadamente en todo tipo de paciente, convirtiéndose así, en un problema de muy elevado impacto en términos de atención en salud pública, llegando al punto en el cual la Organización Mundial de la Salud la denominó como la primera enfermedad crónica no transmisible que pasó a ser epidemia global
