Abstract EN
This study was undertaken to assess medium-term effects of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) on body weight and glucose homeostasis in severely obese type 2 diabetic (T2DM) subjects.
Twenty-five obese T2DM subjects (10 M/15 F, age 45±9 years, BMI 48±8 kg/m2, M ± SD) underwent evaluation of anthropometric/clinical parameters and glucose homeostasis before, 3 and 9–15 months after LSG.
Mean BMI decreased from 48±8 kg/m2 to 40±9 kg/m2 (P<.001) at 3 months and 34±6 kg/m2 (P<.001) at 9–15 months after surgery.
Remission of T2DM (fasting plasma glucose < 126 mg/dL and HbA1c<6.5% in the absence of hypoglycemic treatment) occurred in all patients but one.
There was a remarkable reduction in the percentage of patients requiring antihypertensive and hypolipidemic drugs.
Our study shows that LSG is effective in producing a significant and sustained weight loss and improving glucose homeostasis in severely obese T2DM patients.
