Bipolar disorder (BD) patients are at high risk of obesity, which affects their quality of life (QOL). Since there is a high comorbidity between BD and obesity, most BD patients seek surgical intervention for obesity. Nowadays, bariatric surgery (BS) is considered appropriate for carefully selected patients with BD. Evaluations before performing BS and careful follow-up of patients with the bipolar spectrum are highly recommended. This study reviews the effects of BS on the course of BD and, at the same time, assesses the effect of BD on the consequences of the surgery. Our results showed that the number of studies approving the promising impact of surgery on BD was more than those disapproving it. However, more accurate results require more than 3-year follow-ups.
