Core Tip	Bariatric surgery is the only sustainable therapy for morbid obesity and its comorbidities. Postoperative diarrhea is common and an essential determinant of quality of life and micro- and macro­nutrient deficiencies. The distinctive anatomic changes after bariatric procedures with exclusion of various length of small bowel have a severe impact not only on diagnostic but also puts limits on therapeutic means. This review provides an overview of causes for chronic diarrhea in the particular context of post-bariatric patients, and details specific problems in diagnosis and treatment of this challenging patient population.
