Brief Summary: Metabolic syndrome is rapidly emerging as an epidemic of global proportions and its definition is still evolving Patients with this syndrome are at increased risk for cardiovascular disease and at increased risk of mortality from cardiovascular disease

Metabolic syndrome is strongly associated with obesity and more specifically with abdominal obesity Abdominal obesity comprises two main components visceral VAT and subcutaneous SAT adipose tissue depots with VAT reported as more metabolically active than SAT and thought to play a major role in the metabolic disturbances associated with obesity and metabolic syndrome

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease NAFLD is fast becoming the most common liver disease and is associated with obesity insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome

Bariatric surgery has yielded dramatic results including longitudinal loss of excess body weight and either complete reversal or significant improvement of several features of metabolic syndrome NAFLD and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis NASH in obese patients
