Morbid Obesity and Severe Knee Osteoarthritis - Which Should Be Treated First? A Randomized Cross-over Study

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this study is to determine whether undergoing bariatric surgery before knee replacement leads to better outcomes compared to undergoing knee replacement before bariatric surgery. Our secondary goal is to compare complication rates between these groups to determine if there is a difference based on the order of the two procedures. Participants will be randomly placed in one of two groups, with each undergoing both procedures but in opposite order. Quality of life will be assessed via questionnaires before and between each procedure, and rates of complications will also be documented to compare their rates between groups.
