The objective of this work was to review the entire literature on gastric and bariatric surgery in order to best define the surgical indications and the specifics of their management. A literature review from 1995 to August 2015 was conducted in Pubmed and Google Scholar, using French and English as publication languages. 21 studies were included (level 3 and 4) over 128 identified. In total, if the cirrhotic patients, candidates for gastric surgery, are appropriately selected, long-term survival seems relatively good. No risk factors for long-term survival have been reported. The literature data are insufficient to be able to make recommendations concerning bariatric surgery in the cirrhotic patient.
