Core Tip	Obesity is a chronic disease with high prevalence and is associated with multiple metabolic comorbidities, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and arterial hypertension. Bariatric surgery has been established as an effective therapeutic strategy; however, in Colombia, there is limited descriptive information on the clinical and metabolic characteristics of patients undergoing this procedure and their early postoperative follow-up.
