AB  - BACKGROUND: The first global survey of bariatric/metabolic surgery based on data 
      from the nations or national groupings of the International Federation for the 
      Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Diseases (IFSO) was published in 1998, followed 
      by reports in 2003, 2009, 2011, and 2012. In this survey, we report a global 
      overview of worldwide bariatric surgery in 2013. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 
      questionnaire evaluating the number and the type of bariatric procedure performed 
      in 2013 was emailed to all members of bariatric societies belonging to IFSO. 
      Trend analyses from 2003 to 2013 were also performed. RESULTS: There were 49/54 
      (90.7%) responders; 37 of the 49 with national registries. The total number of 
      bariatric procedures performed worldwide in 2013 was 468,609, 95.7% carried out 
      laparoscopically. The highest number (n = 154,276) was from the USA/Canada 
      region. The most commonly performed procedure in the world was Roux-en-Y gastric 
      bypass (RYGB), 45%; followed by sleeve gastrectomy (SG), 37%; and adjustable 
      gastric banding (AGB), 10%. Most significant were the rise in prevalence of SG 
      from 0 to 37% of the world total from 2003 to 2013, and the fall in AGB of 68% 
      from its peak in 2008 to 2013. CONCLUSIONS: SG is currently the most frequently 
      performed procedure in the USA/Canada and in the Asia/Pacific regions, and second 
      to RYGB in the Europe and Latin/South America regions. The accuracy of the 
      IFSO-based world survey of procedures would be enhanced if each nation or 
      national group would create a national registry.
