Since 2008, in France, certain university hospitals have been eligible to perform bariatric surgery for adolescents. It was therfore possible to define its feasibility, potential complications and specific indications. This led to recommandations published by Health Authorities (HAS) in 2016. However, it seems imperative to continue monitoring these patients in order to improve their management, especially as the use of these surgical techniques becomes increasingly widespread. The Angers University Hospital is one of the leading hospitals when it comes bariatric surgery for adolescents through its use of gastric bands. The aim of this protocol is to update data on how effective this surgery is on weight loss and obesity-associated comorbidities, and to monitor medical, psychological and surgical complications associated with this treatment.
