Mr Paras Jethwa BSc MD FRCS FRCS(Gen Surg) Consultant Laparoscopic Surgeon Metabolic Effects of Bariatric Surgery on Diabetes
Definitions • Body Mass Index = weight/height2 < 20 = underweight 20-25 = normal 25-30 = overweight 30-40 = obese > 40 = morbidly obese • Excess Weight = Current Weight – Ideal Weight
Type 2 DM • >80% have BMI >25 • 50% obese, 10%>40% • Modest weight loss helps control • BUT - 95% will fail with diet • Proposed in mid 90’s that T2DM • “Surgical disease” • Foregut hormone stimulation
Surgical Options • Restrictive vs. malabsorption • Restrictive: • Generating saiety signals • Malabsorpative: • Gastric restriction • Duodenal and upper jejunal bypass • Extreme (BPD & Switch) • Only last 50cm of SB used for digestion
Laparoscopic Gastric Band • Mean = 47% EWL • Best for • BMI < 47 kg/m2 • Regular meal patterns • Non sweet eaters • Mortality risk 1:800 • Morbidity risk 1:100 • 15% bands need revision
Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass • Mean = 72% EWL • Best for • All BMI • Sweet eaters and grazers • Diabetics • Mortality risk 1:300 • Morbidity risk 1:75
Laparoscopic Sleeve Mean = 75% EWL? Easy maintence One long suture line Poorer longterm Removes Ghrelin producing cells Mortality risk 1:400 Morbidity risk 1:100
Laparoscopic Mini Gastric Bypass Mean = 80% EWL Best for All BMI Grazers T2DM Mortality risk 1:500 Morbidity risk 1:80 Lower long term risk of metabolic complications Extensively practiced in US
What mechanisms are at work?Bypass factors • Foregut vs. Hindgut theories • Gherlin • Glucagon like peptide • Gut derived glucadonotropic signalling • Diabetic effect seen before weight loss • Clear division contributes • RYB vs. Banding for speed of control
Weight loss factors • Improvements insulin action/reduced resistance • Relieve secretory pressure on ß cells • Early effect: • Calorific reduction - increase insulin sensitivity • Later effect: • Absolute weight loss glycaemic control
Are the effects longlasting? • Maximum wt loss is at 1-2 years • 30-50% excess wt loss at 6/12 • 10-14 years post op - more favourable levels of : • Cholesterol • DM • HT
Benefits • 621 studies with 135, 246 patients • Mean age - 40.2 years • Mean BMI - 47.9 • 80% Female • 56% EBWL • 78% resolution of diabetes • BPD>RYB>LAGB • Effect static at 2 years
Case controlled prospective study • Surgery v control • 4047 patients • 99.9% follow up • Average 10.9 year follow up • Prospective SOS trial: • Glucose/lipids/BP • 10.9 year FU - 30% mortality
Non T2DM effects • SOS study • 50% reduction in IHD • 85% reduction in sleep apnoea • Life expectancy improves up to 89% • Up to 40% reduction in premature death • 60% reduction in cancer deaths • Fatal IHD halved
Prognostic factors for DM remission • Type of op • Pro: • Early rapid weight loss • Preoperative insulin dose • Against: • Diabetes dutation (B cell mass) • High HbA1c • Insulin vs. oral therapy • Diabetic complications (retinopathy etc.) • Unsure: • FH • Late onset type 1
Risks • Remarkably safe • Mortality 0.1% to BPD 1.1% • 5-10% acute comps • Bleeds • Int. hernia • Anastomotic issues • Nutrition • Emotional • Hypoglycaemia if medication unaltered
Metabolic Surgery BMI > 40 or BMI >35 with Comorbidity NICE: CG43 Exhausted non surg methods Fit for op Willing First line for BMI>50 Part of MDT In young in exceptional circumstances psychological factors etc.
Diabetes • Bypass: • Type 2 - 87% resolution • Band • Type 2 - 73% resolution • 92% mortality risk reduction • Clinically and cost effective for moderate to severe obesity
Role of banding? • RCT of 80 patients • 2 year follow up • 87% v 22% excess weight loss • Significant reduction in metabolic syndrome
50-77% of obese adolescents carry their obesity into adulthood
Adolescents • Rapidly growing group in US • Sequential family members • Extremely obese teen • Treatment of choice? • Radical step BUT……. • T2DM not uncommon in teens now • Given that we are following US trends…
Summary • Obesity plays a key role in pathophysiology • Roux en Y bypass most effective • Effects not just related weight related • Useful adjunct in obesity esp. when DM difficult to control • Surgical diversion leads to release of incretin • Type 2 DM evaluated at MDT
