Abstract:
Although weight loss is beneficial for obese patients with diabetes, current medical treatment for obesity is difficult. Bariatric surgery leads to substantial and durable weight reduction.Nearly 30% of patients who undergo bariatric surgery have type 2 diabetes.For many of them, diabetes resolves following bariatric surgery (83% to 93% for bypass procedures and 55% to 84% for restrictive procedures).This review discusses the effects of various bariatric procedures on type 2 diabetes mellitus and their possible mechanisms.
