six months follow up. The statistical analyzes were performed using Wilcoxon signed rank test. Results: Seventy four severe obese patients (61F/13M) with median age 39 (18 64) years old and median preoperative body mass index (BMI) 45.0 (34.6 60.1)kg/m2 were included. The mean preoperative weight loss was 9.1±6.42 kg and six months postoperative weight loss was 25.7±11.36 kg. We found a significant correlation between preoperative and postoperative weight loss (r = 0.3; p < 0.001). Conclusion: There is a positive correlation between preoperative weight reduction and postoperative weight loss after bariatric surgery.
