Bariatric Surgery, Biliopancreatic Diversion, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Conditions
Brief summary
A previous prospective study of BPD effect on type 2 diabetes patients with BMI 25-35 (DIA-CHIR) showed that T2DM is less sensitive to BPD beneficial effect in the simply overweight patients. A new prospective study was then planned with the aim to gain insight in the mechanism of action of BPD in T2DM patients in the 25-30 BMI range. Thirty patients will be submitted to BPD and compared with 10 nonoperated controls. Euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp, OGTT, and mixed meal test will be performed in all subjects preoperatively, and 1 month, 1 year, and 5 years after BPD. Complete clinical and biochemical evaluations will be performed at 1, 4, 8, and 12 months, and every sixth month thereafter until the end of the fifth year.
Interventions
biliopancreatic diversion consists of a distal gastrectomy with a long Roux-en-Y reconstruction, where the enteroenterostomy is placed 50 cm proximal to the ileocecal valve
patients are treated with conventional antidiabetic drugs according to the rules of good clinical practice
