The International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Disorders (IFSO) is a federation composed of national associations of bariatric surgeons and Integrated Health professionals. It is a scientific organization that brings together surgeons and integrated health professionals, such as nurses, practitioners, dieticians, nutritionists, psychologists, internists, and anesthesiologists, involved in the treatment of severely obese patients. One of IFSO’s main activities is the organization of the yearly World Congress, which provides a forum to exchange knowledge on surgical treatment of severely obese patients, present new techniques, research, and concepts, and meet the experts in the field. Currently, there are 66 official member societies of IFSO. There are also individual members from countries that thus far have not formed a national association.
