Overview of Operations for Morbid Obesity

Abstract: Massive obesity is prevalent and associated with serious comorbidities. For patients who cannot sustain weight loss, malabsorption and gastric reduction operations have been developed. Patients with the former operation require surveillance for protein malnutrition and other sequelae; those with gastric reduction require a permanent tiny reservoir and stoma. Long-term follow-up surveillance is necessary. Postoperatively, 15% to 40% of patients, depending on the operative procedure performed, fail to maintain a… Show more

“…The gastrectomy aspect of the BPD was reported to reduce food ingestion in human patients, in whom it has a temporary and perhaps limited effect on weight loss. 10,24 In addition to an initial reduction in food intake, the BPD also led to nutrient malabsorption, which likely contributed to the long-term reducing effects of the surgery on body fat reserves. Indeed, fecal energy density stayed consistently higher in the BPD-operated rats compared to both controls and sham rats.…”

“…2,3 Following the same principle, the Jejunocolic bypass was introduced followed by, the jejunoileal bypass. 4 Along with its side effects of mineral and vitamins loss, purely malabsorption procedures failed to maintain weight loss due to bowel adaptation. 5 The gastric restriction approach followed in the 1960s with gastric pouch and Billroth II gastrectomy.…”

“…Este procedimiento ha mostrado inducir y mantener una pérdida satisfactoria de peso 35,37,41 y en estudios nacionales se han reportado altas tasas de éxito [38][39][40] . La técnica consiste en la fabricación de un reservorio gástrico proximal (aproximadamente 15 a 30 mL) totalmente separado del resto del estómago, que se une a un segmento proximal de yeyuno de 150-200 cm de largo, a través de un estoma de 1 cm de diámetro.…”
