چکیده

BACKGROUND Severe obesity is associated with important morbidity and increased mortality. The successes of lifestyle modifications and drug therapy have been partial and mostly unsustained in reducing obesity and its comorbidities. Bariatric surgery, particularly biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch reduces efficiently excess body weight and improves metabolic and cardiovascular functions. CASE PRESENTATION A 56-year-old man with severe clinical obesity underwent a biliopancreatic diversion with a duodenal switch after unsuccessful treatment with weight loss pharmacotherapy. He had diabetes, hypertension and sleep apnea syndrome and was on three medications for hypertension and two hypoglycemic agents in addition to > 200 insulin units daily. Eleven months after the surgery, he had lost 40% of his body weight. The lipid profile showed great improvement and the hypertension and diabetes were more easily controlled with no more insulin needed. The pseudonormalized pattern of left ventricular diastolic function improved and ventricular walls showed decreased thickness. CONCLUSION Biliopancreatic diversion may bring metabolic and cardiovascular benefits in severely obese patients from a cardiovascular perspective.

G 1359A polymorphism of the cannabinoid receptor gene (CNR1) and clinical results of biliopancreatic diversion.

BACKGROUND Bariatric surgery is the most effective long-term treatment for morbid obesity, reducing obesity-associated co-morbidities. We decide to investigate the role of the polymorphism (G1359A) of the cannabinoid (CB)1 receptor gene on clinical outcomes 1 year after biliopancreatic diversion in morbidly obese patients. DESIGN A sample of 66 morbidly obese patients (BMI >40 kg/m2) were ope...

Restoration of adiponectin pulsatility in severely obese subjects after weight loss.

Diurnal variations of adiponectin levels have been studied in normal-weight men and in diabetic and nondiabetic obese subjects, but no data have been reported in obese subjects after weight loss. We collected blood samples at 1-h intervals over 24 h from seven severely obese subjects before and after massive weight loss consequent to surgical operation (bilio-pancreatic diversion [BPD]) to meas...
