Core Tip Obesity is a complex metabolic illness that is associated with several comorbid diseases. There has been a constant demand for safe and more effective weight reduction interventions to fill the gap in the treatment of obesity. The intragastric balloon is a fascinating intermediate alternative solution between medical obesity treatment and bariatric surgical procedures for obese patients that may provide better efficacy and have a more favorable risk profile.
