Abstract | Bariatric surgery is widely recognized as the most effective intervention for obesity and offers benefits beyond weight loss. However, not all patients achieve satisfactory weight loss, balanced changes in body composition, and resolution of comorbidities. Therefore, thorough pre- and postoperative evaluations are important to predict success and minimize adverse effects. More comprehensive assessments require broadening the focus beyond body weight and fat measurements to consider quantitative and qualitative evaluations of muscles. Introducing the concept of sarcopenia is useful for assessing the degradative and pathological changes in muscles associated with cardiometabolic function, physical performance, and other obesity-related comorbidities in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. However, there is currently no consensus or definition regarding the research and clinical use of sarcopenia in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Therefore, this review aimed to define the concept of sarcopenia applicable to patients undergoing bariatric surgery, based on the consensus reached for sarcopenia in the general population. We also discuss the methods and significance of measuring muscle mass, quality, and strength, which are key variables requiring a comprehensive assessment. |
