Understanding Your Options For Bariatric Surgery There are many weight loss surgery options including Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, adjustable gastric band, sleeve gastrectomy, and biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch. These common bariatric surgeries promote weight loss by restricting the amount of food consume

Obesity has grown to epidemic proportions, and in lack of efficient life-style and medical treatments, the bariatric surgeries are performed in rising numbers. The most common surgery is the Gastric Bypass (GBP) surgery, with the Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (DS) as an option for the most extreme cases with a BMI,50 kg/m2.. In paper I 20 GBP-patients were examined during the first post-operative year regarding the natriuretic peptide, NT-ProBNP, which is secreted from the cardiac ventricles. Levels of NT-ProBNP quickly increased during the first post-surgery week, and later established itself on a higher level than pre-surgery.. In paper II we report of 5 patient-cases after GBP-surgery with severe problems with postprandial hypoglycaemia that were successfully treated with GLP-1-analogs. The effect of treatment could be observed both symptomatically and in some cases using continuous glucose measuring systems (CGMS).. In paper III three groups of subjects; 15 post-GBP ...

Abstract OBJECTIVE: The objective was to evaluate ghrelin and growth hormone (GH) interactions and responses to a growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH)/arginine test in severe obesity before and after surgically-induced weight loss. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES: Our study population included 11 severely obese women 39 +/- 12 years of age, with a mean BMI of 48.6 +/- 2.4 kg/m2, re-studied in a phase of stabilized body weight, with a BMI of 33.4 +/- 1.2 kg/m2, 18 months after having successfully undergone biliopancreatic diversion (BPD). A GHRH/arginine test was performed before and 18 months after BPD to evaluate ghrelin and GH interactions. Active ghrelin, measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA), and GH, measured by chemiluminescence assay, were assayed before and after the GHRH/arginine test. RESULTS: Fasting serum GH levels and GH area under the curve (AUC) significantly increased from 0.2 +/- 0.05 ng/mL to 1 +/- 0.3 ng/mL (p , 0.05) and from 514.76 +/- 98.7 ng/mL for 120 minutes to 1957.3 +/- ...

No! Liposuction is a surface surgery performed to remove extra unwanted fat from different part of body; this is basically a surgery for body sculpturing not weight loss, where as obesity (Bariatric Surgery) gives options for the treatment of this disease evolved into three categories, restrictive procedures, e.g. Gastric band, sleeve Gastrectomy, malabsorptive procedures, eg. Bilio-pancreatic diversion with or without duodenal switch and combined procedures, e.g. Roux-en-Y-gastric bypass (RYGB). Hence, selection of the procedure has to be individualized based on the age, BMI, presence or absence of co morbidities, patients preference and compliance, surgeons experience etc. However, the experience of the bariatric surgeon is the most crucial in selecting the right procedure for an individual.. ...

Gastric bypass is considered the gold standard of obesity surgery. In it, the surgeon reduces the size of the stomach and bypasses the pyloric valve, which separates the stomach from the small intestine. In a duodenal switch, the surgeon leaves the pyloric valve intact. This prevents some complications linked with gastric bypass and allows for more normal digestion, which preserves vital nutrients.. Both types of surgery carry risks. The duodenal switch, for instance, takes about 20 minutes longer to do and requires a longer hospital stay. Nearly all of the traditional gastric bypass procedures in the study were done laparoscopically, but only about half of the duodenal switch procedures were laparoscopic. (The rest were open surgery.). Laparoscopic surgery uses a laparoscope, a thin, flexible tube with a video camera inside. The surgeon places the laparoscope through a small cut in the abdomen. The camera takes images that the surgeon can see on a computer screen.. Although both types of ...

After the procedure, you will be taken to the recovery room for observation. Once your blood pressure, pulse, and breathing are stable and you are alert, you will be taken to your hospital room. Malabsorptive stomach surgery usually requires an in-hospital stay of several days.. You may receive pain medication as needed, either by a nurse or by administering it yourself through a device connected to your intravenous line.. You will be encouraged to move around as tolerated while you are in bed, and then to get out of bed and walk around as your strength improves. This is very important, as it helps to prevent blood clots from forming.. At first you will receive fluids through an IV. After a day or two you will be given liquids, such as broth or clear juice, to drink. As you are able to tolerate liquids, you will be given thicker liquids, such as pudding, milk, or cream soup, followed by foods that you do not have to chew, such as hot cereal or pureed foods.

Endogenous oxalate is primarily derived from the metabolism of glycine and ascorbic acid [1]. Calcium oxalate crystal related renal injury in the past was mostly due to JIB, which was a surgical weight-loss procedure performed for the relief of morbid obesity during the 1950s through the 1970s. However, there remained too many complications, including mineral and electrolyte imbalance, protein calorie malnutrition, enteric complications, and renal disease (hyperoxaluria, with oxalate stones or interstitial oxalate deposits). The multiple complications which were associated with JIB, led to a search for alternative procedures. In 1979 [2], one type of modern bariatric surgery was gastric bypass. Full procedure gastric bypass included RYGB surgery, biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch, vertical banded gastroplasty, and laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding. A study by Asplin et al. revealed a mean oxalate excretion of 83 mg/day in patients who underwent RYGB [3]. This was significantly ...

The Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch - abbreviated as BPD/DS - is a procedure with two components. First, a smaller, tubular stomach pouch is created by removing a portion of the stomach, very similar to the sleeve gastrectomy. Next, a large portion of the small intestine is bypassed.. The duodenum, or the first portion of the small intestine, is divided just past the outlet of the stomach. A segment of the distal (last portion) small intestine is then brought up and connected to the outlet of the newly created stomach, so that when the patient eats, the food goes through a newly created tubular stomach pouch and empties directly into the last segment of the small intestine. Roughly three-fourths of the small intestine is bypassed by the food stream.. The bypassed small intestine, which carries the bile and pancreatic enzymes that are necessary for the breakdown and absorption of protein and fat, is reconnected to the last portion of the small intestine so that they can eventually ...

Peripancreatic tuberculous lymphadenitis is rare and of difficult diagnosis. The two cases described illustrate two clinical aspects according to the proximity of the biliary tract: either anterior lymph nodes responsible for obstructive jaundice, or posterior lymph nodes responsible for chronic epigastric pain. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is essential to exclude a pancreatic lesion and facilitate the interpretation of the CT images. Tuberculosis must then be suspected. In the absence of another tuberculous localisation, laparotomy is necessary to assert the diagnosis. Antituberculous chemotherapy alone, administered for 9 to 12 months, cures this form of tuberculous lymphadenitis.

There are generally two different types of diversion programs: caution/ warning programs and formal programs. Caution or warning programs are the least invasive. In these programs, youths are diverted out of the system with no further action, aside from a warning or formal caution, usually from the police. Alternatively, formal diversion programs usually involve some conditions youths must fulfill, including an admission of guilt and an agreement to participate in a diversion intervention. Successful completion of diversion programming will generally result in no further judicial processing (Wilson and Hoge 2012).. There are many different examples of diversion interventions, such as restorative justice programs (including victim-offender mediation or family group conferencing), community service, treatment or skills-building programs (including cognitive-behavioral therapy or employment training), family treatment, drug courts, and youth courts.. Diversion can occur at several different contact ...

Through the small intestine the food is digested and dissolved by juices from the pancreas, and liver as well as the intestine. Lastly the contents are mixed and pushed forward for further digestion.. How Does Surgery Promote Weight Loss?. Bariatric surgery alters the digestive process. The operations can be divided into three types: restrictive, malabsorptive, and combined restrictive/malabsorptive. Restrictive operations limit food intake by creating a narrow passage from the upper part of the stomach into the larger lower part, reducing the size of the stomach to create an earlier sense of fullness. Malabsorptive operations do not limit food intake, but instead reduce the amount of intestine that comes in contact with food so that the body absorbs fewer calories. Combined operations use stomach restriction and a partial bypass of the small intestine ...

I would be losing every day if Id had a Roux-en-Y or Duodenal Switch, but both of these procedures scared me. They both restrict the stomach size and cause a certain amount of malabsorption by removing part of the small intestine. In my research, I came to believe that causing malabsorpotion is like playing Russian Roulette. Theres a small chance of getting the bullet in your brain, but if you do, youre 100% dead. If malabsorption causes problems for you, youre in big trouble. The Lap Band has an advantage over other restrictive procedures because theres no resection of organs, very little chance of bleeding during surgery and zero chance of leaks, which are a dangerous complication of the other surgeries. One OR nurse told me, RNY patients dont look good when they come out of the OR. Lap Band patients just look healthier. I can understand the desperation of someone who weighs 400 or 500 pounds in wanting a fast rate of loss, but thats not me. Ill take the slower, safer route ...

Now, on to the good guys. Tony Stark was, as usual, the star - as long as Robert Downey Jr. plays him, I seriously doubt any secondary character will ever be able to steal the show. The beginning of the movie reminded the audience how he used to be - an arrogant playboy. Present day Tony still has to grow up some (that challenge to the Mandarin was utterly stupid, and there were several times Pepper could justifiably have said You know what? I cant take this anymore. Im leaving.), but at least hes no longer drinking himself into incoherency and sleeping with women he barely knows. In this movie, hes also dealing with PTSD as a result of the events in the Avengers movie (which I have to admit I barely remember - I need to do a rewatch).

Background: Both gastric bypass (GB) and duodenal switch with sleeve gastrectomy (DS) have been widely used as bariatric surgeries, and DS appears to be superior to GB. The aim of this study was to better understand the mechanisms leading to body weight loss by comparing these two procedures in experimental models of rats. Methods: Animals were subjected to GB, DS or laparotomy (controls), and monitored by an open-circuit indirect calorimeter composed of comprehensive laboratory animal monitoring system and adiabatic bomb calorimeter. Results: Body weight loss was greater after DS than GB. Food intake was reduced after DS but not GB. Energy expenditure was increased after either GB or DS. Fecal energy content was increased after DS but not GB. Conclusion: GB induced body weight loss by increasing energy expenditure, whereas DS induced greater body weight loss by reducing food intake, increasing energy expenditure and causing malabsorption in rat models ...

Seven patients aged 42.9±8.9 yrs, with an initial BMI of 42.5±5.7, who had had a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) were reoperated on from June 2007 to September 2008. All procedures except one had been done laparoscopically in an antegastric-antecolic fashion with a 30-50 cc vertical gastric pouch, and a sum of biliopancreatic and Roux lengths of 212±50 cm. Two patients with a BMI < 40 had a gastric band failure and RYGB included band removal, while in another patient a Nissen fundoplication was left untouched. Indication for revision was weight regain. Gastric pouch enlargement was documented on barium swallow in every case. Revisions were performed laparoscopically 25.8 months after the RYGB. Gastric pouch size reduction (with takedown of a fundoplication valve in 1) and redo gastrojejunal anastomosis was performed over a mean 116 min in five patients. The other 2 patients had pouch size reduction with blind Roux loop resection only. Biliopancreatic and Roux limb length remained unchanged. ...

Obesity cause numerous common and lethal diseases and any non-surgical treatments done to prevent obesity till date have failed to provide an effective, durable solution. Bariatric surgery is one surgery that includes the procedures of gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, gastric banding and biliopancreatic bypass that have shown to produce substantial and durable weight loss.. Bariatric surgery Bariatric surgical restricts the amount of food the stomach can hold, causing malabsorption of nutrients, or by a amalgamation of both gastric restriction and malabsorption. This procedure includes several types of operations that help you lose weight by making changes to your digestive system. It is an option if you have extreme obesity and havent been able to lose enough weight to improve your health or keep from gaining back the weight you lost with other treatments.. ...

Background: Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) and transadominal ultrasonography (TUS) are two imaging investigations which can be used to assess pancreatobiliary status, although both of these imaging techniques are operator and machine dependent, but they have different sensitivity and specificity in detecting pancreatobiliary diseases. Objective: To compare the diagnostic value of EUS versus TUS in the assessment of pancreatobiliary diseases. Patients and Methods: This study was conducted in KCGH (Kurdistan Center for Gastroenterology and Hepatology) in Sulaimani city. Iraqi Kurdistan; the duration of study was 14 months and conducted after approval of Iraqi board ethical committee. One hundred cases were enrolled in the study: 52 of them were females and 48 were males; their ages ranged between 16 - 90 years; informed consent was taken from all patients; all patients underwent proper clinical evaluation; TUS, EUS and Oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (OGD), and in some of them (25 patients) Endoscopic

The diversion facility was designed and constructed in two phases. Phase I included the diversion dam, pump station, and an approximately 15,000-foot-long pipeline. RJH staff provided technical review and guidance for geotechnical issues associated with the diversion dam that included sedimentation and underseepage.. Phase II included an additional 1,500 feet of pipeline, a reinforced concrete outlet structure, a riprap-lined upper discharge channel, and an unlined lower discharge channel in the reservoir. RJH provided design and construction engineering services for Phase II. The pipeline is subject to pressure surges from pumping, and a combination air-vacuum valve was installed in the Phase I pipeline to mitigate pressure surges. RJH performed transient hydraulic modeling as part of the Phase II design and identified that a 48-inch-diameter open standpipe would also be required to ensure the pipeline was within acceptable pressure allowances. The outlet structure was designed to create a ...

BPD is known to induce a greater weight loss than LAGB, independently of initial BMI; this information comes from a meta-analysis [25] and from two comparative studies [27, 28]. This finding was confirmed in the present study. Surgery was clearly more effective than control treatment, as already reported in the only study including control patients [21]. The pattern of BMI depicted in Figure 1 indicates that our findings were representative of what happens with the two surgical procedures. In agreement with two small studies [27, 28], the effect on metabolic variables, and the disappearance of diabetes mellitus (patients were treated with metformin, when required) were not different for the 2 procedures. Also disappearance of metabolic syndrome was not different. As to metabolic effects, the only difference was in cholesterol decrease, which appears more due to the technique than to amount of weight loss. We have other data [39] showing that another malabsorptive technique ...
