Abstract
<p dir="ltr"><span>Artificial intelligence (AI) is having a major impact in the field of bariatric surgery (BS) as it helps improve outcomes for patients with severe obesity. This advanced technology optimises clinical decision-making processes and helps reduce the risks associated with surgery. In the context of bariatrics, AI is used to identify suitable patients, and monitor postoperative recovery but also to predict complications that may occur. BS is an effective solution for treating severe obesity, a condition characterised by the excessive accumulation of body fat, which can lead to serious health problems. However, this surgical field faces challenges in terms of patient selection and follow-up. By implementing machine learning (ML) algorithms and advanced imaging technologies, AI offers advantages to surgeons in performing interventions with increased precision and efficiency. The integration of AI into BS brings significant benefits to both patients and healthcare professionals, thereby facilitating the development of a personalised and safe approach to obesity management. Through this review, we aim to explore the potential, benefits, and risks of using AI in the context of BS.</span></p>
