Predisposing factors of new-onset orthostatic intolerance (OI) after bariatric surgery (BS) are unknown. The purpose of this study is to summarize current existing data on new-onset OI after BS. Materials and methods were considered for a search of articles that were published by the 30th of July 2020. A systematic review in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and in line with the protocol agreed by all authors was conducted. Of the 604 initially identified articles, four studies were found to match the established criteria and were extracted for eligibility. 83.3% were female. Hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome were the most frequently reported comorbidities. Surgical intervention such as revision, conversion, or reversal was not documented in these studies. Awareness of this issue must be raised due to the possibility of reduced quality of life and the risk of syncope.
