Popis: Patients who have undergone bariatric surgery are at high risk for nutritional deficiencies before and after surgery if no proper supplementation and close follow-up are maintained. As pregnancies after these surgeries are occurring more frequently, deficiencies imply risks for both mother and child. Nutritional needs for this specific population are different from that of patients with obesity or a non-bariatric population. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the most described vitamins and minerals during pregnancy, after bariatric surgery, and during pregnancy after bariatric surgery in order to summarize their specific needs and possible side effects and to provide a useful guideline to the involved caregivers.
