RESUMO
We present the case of a 42-year-old female with major depressive disorder who received a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and subsequently decompensated in her depression symptoms and began newly engaging in problematic alcohol use. Top experts in the consultation-liaison field, specifically bariatric surgery psychiatry, provide guidance for this commonly encountered clinical case based on their experience and a review of the available literature. Key teaching points include the presurgical psychosocial assessment, pertinent perioperative psychopharmacology, and problematic alcohol use after bariatric surgery.
