Endoscopic Interventions in the Treatment of Obesity and Diabetes

Abstract

Obesity is a global health problem which is on the rise and is strongly associated with the development of type 2 diabetes and other comorbidities. Bariatric surgery is now an established treatment for both these conditions, leading to impressive results in weight loss and glycemic control. More recently, we have seen the development of various endoscopic devices as potential alternatives or adjuncts to bariatric surgery. In this state-of-the-art review, we outline the current landscape of endoscopic treatments available for the management of both obesity and diabetes, including the clinical evidence supporting their use, efficacy, safety, and potential mechanisms of action.
