There is currently a boom in demand for bariatric surgery performed by laparoscopy. These techniques are considered the route of choice for most surgical procedures. Patients opt for this type of procedure because it is less invasive, safer and faster post-operatively. The course is aimed at fully understanding the bariatric patient in all their complexity and dimensions. It presents a common core of understanding, debates and adjustments of visions between surgeons and the multidisciplinary team, as well as improving the various surgical techniques, treatment of complications, revision surgeries, bariatric endoscopy and future perspectives in the treatment of morbid obesity. Well-trained surgeons can change the life story of metabolic patients, adding time and quality to their lives. This also results in lower costs for the public and private health systems, less absenteeism, and lower health costs and early retirements. Theoretical/practical training in Minimally Invasive Bariatric Surgery is therefore fully justified, focusing on the day-to-day work of bariatric and metabolic surgeons, with theoretical classes with leading national specialists. Exhaustive training in animal laboratory and dry-lab techniques, participation in live surgeries and monitoring of the routine of big names in bariatric and metabolic surgery in Curitiba and São Paulo, during an internship in which students will be able to answer all their questions.
