Bipolar disorder (BD) patients are at high risk of obesity, which affects their quality of life (QOL). Since there is a high comorbidity between BD and obesity, most BD patients seek surgical intervention for obesity. Nowadays, bariatric surgery (BS) is considered appropriate for carefully selected patients with BD. Evaluations before performing BS and careful follow-up of patients with the bipolar spectrum are highly recommended. This study reviews the effects of BS on the course of BD and, at the same time, assesses the effect of BD on the consequences of the surgery. Our results showed that the number of studies approving the promising impact of surgery on BD was more than those disapproving it. However, more accurate results require more than 3-year follow-ups.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to present a newly designed 3D-printed personalized model (3D PPM) of a radiofrequency needle guide with a maxillary fixation for gasserian ganglion (GG) puncture.

Methods: Implementation of 3D CT-guided radiofrequency therapy of the GG with and without use of 3D PPM was analyzed. The following parameters were assessed: radiation time, dose area product, air kerma reference point, pain severity during the puncture needle insertion, prosopalgia regression degree (according to visual analog scale) and the severity of facial numbness (according to the Barrow Neurological Institute scale) in the early postoperative period, and postpuncture complications.
