Therefore, there is a reasonable possibility that the improvement of kidney function after bariatric surgery may, in part, be related to the reduction in renal venous ... pressure. Studies will have to be performed to determine whether bariatric surgery can help stabilize renal function once injury is detected. This will require intervention early in the disease process
