Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) continues to be one of the most popular bariatric procedures all over the world. It has been established that obesity is a predisposing factor for several comorbidities, including life-threatening conditions. Many studies have discussed the impact of sleeve gastrectomy on TSH level. But, since most obese patients have some sort of depression, we will try to study the impact of sleeve gastrectomy, depression and hypothyroidism on each other.
