surgery.
morbid obesity. Additional tissue/fluid collection is also gathered during the time of

Study participation by invitation. Patients will be invited to participate after completing
all necessary clinical visits including lab studies, counseling, and participation in
educational programs. During the pre-operative visit patients interested in participation
will complete all necessary consent documentation, during surgery tissue collection will
include subcutaneous & omental fat, jejunum (Gastric Bypass), gastric remnant (sleeve
gastrectomy), and liver biopsy. Post surgery patient will be observed for weight loss and
resolution of co-morbidities. At designated times post surgery when lab studies are ordered
additional blood/urine samples will be collected and analyzed.
