Patients may also worry about the possible complications of an inappropriate alimentation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a matter of fact, several metabolic processes can be modified by GI tract surgery (e.g. major liver resection or pancreatectomy),  thus making the nutritional support  essential:  and the same support is fundamental in  bariatric surgery, nowadays  widely used for super-obese patients.
