from the Teen-Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery Study.</p> <p>“These findings are an important first step in providing data on the short-term safety of bariatric surgery in adolescent patients,” study researcher <strong>Mary Brandt, MD,</strong> director of the Adolescent Bariatric Surgery Program at Texas Children’s Hospital and vice chair of education of Baylor College of Medicine’s Michael E. DeBakey department of surgery, said in a press release. “We know that these children are suffering from adult-type diseases at a much younger age. This surgery isn’t just about weight loss, but the positive implications it has on the comorbidities that they face as a result of their obesity as well. In fact, in select patients, bariatric surgery can help reduce the severity, and oftentimes eliminate some of these diseases.”</p> <div class="mug right"><img width="90" height="120" alt="Mary Brandt, MD" src="/web/20131109105739im_/http://www.healio.com/~/media/Images/Mugs/Endocrinology/B/Brandt_Mary_90x120.jpg"/>  <p class="name"><strong>Mary Brandt</strong></p> </div> <p></p> <p>Brandt, along with <strong>Thomas H.
