description Background: The aim of this study was to compare the body image in two groups of patients with obesity, undergoing gastric bypass surgery and Sleeve gastrectomy. Methods: This descriptive study was performed on 126 morbid obese patients (two groups of 63), who underwent gastric bypass and Sleeve gastrectomy procedures from January 2017 to October 2017 at Alzahra Medical Training Center in Isfahan, Iran. Body image of all patients was assessed preoperatively and 6 months after the surgery using Multidimensional Body Self-Relation Questionnaire. All data were analyzed using SPSS software. Findings: Paired t test indicated that the mean of total body image score increased significantly in both groups after the surgery (P < 0.01); but independent t test showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups at baseline (P = 0.62), was well as 6 months after the surgery (P = 0.62). Conclusion: The mean total body image score was significantly improved at 6 months postoperatively. But in long term, following more weight loss and flabby or loose skin, their body image would change or decrease consequently. Therefore, it is recommended to follow up these patients in a longer periods.
