Affiliation(s)
ABSTRACT
This article reports the experience preparing a morbidly obese group to undergo bariatric surgery in a private healthcare plan in Brazil. The method used was based on assumptions of the operative groups by Pichon-Rivière (1998) and in psychoanalysis. The results have been satisfactory indicating that the multidisciplinary model, organized by the perspective of the operating group, is a viable alternative to intervention with morbidly obese patients.
