Abstract

Objective: To analyze obesity and its consequences as a current public health problem. Method: Systematic review of articles published in PubMed. Results: Seventeen articles were scrutinized and presented information relevant to the topic in question. Conclusion: Several specific syndromes have been identified, with obesity being the main symptom. These rare causes of obesity account for less than 1% of obesity cases in children in the tertiary care setting. Obesity is also a component of relatively common genetic syndromes, including Down syndrome.
