For severely obese patients planning bariatric surgery, many surgeons advise preoperative weight loss which can be difficult for some to achieve. We report a 16 year old male who was referred for weight loss surgery in a very late stage of severe obesity with a weight and BMI of 310 kg and 93 kg/m2, respectively. He also suffered from obstructive sleep apnea and hypertension. To prepare him for laparoscopic gastric bypass, a strict preoperative nutritional intervention with inpatient and outpatient phases was designed. He lost 22 kg preoperatively and an additional 86 kg by 67 months postoperatively, representing a 35% total reduction in BMI. This case illustrates the feasibility and value of a defined preoperative dietary intervention to effectively manage the weight of an adolescent referred late in the progression of severe obesity.
