Abstract

Background

The positive impact of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on metabolic syndrome and glycemic control has been proven in obese patients. One anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is a simple, effective and easy to learn procedure. OAGB provides encouraging results for the treatment of diabetes obese patients, but does it have the ability to be an alternative procedure to RYGB in the treatment of these patients? The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of OAGB on diabetic obese patients at the bariatric centre of our university hospital. By extension, we evaluated the possibility of BMI and the preoperative antidiabetic medication usage to be predictive factors for postoperative diabetes resolution.

Methods

This is a retrospective single-centre study of 472 diabetic patients who underwent OAGB from November 2009 to December 2015. All patients were followed-up for at least 1 year, and up to 3 years, where available. Weight, HbA1c, and anti-diabetic medications were recorded at baseline, 3, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months.

Results

A total of 472 patients have been followed-up for 1 year and 361 for 3 years. The mean BMI decreased from 46.8 ± 7.2 to 29.5 ± 2.8 kg/m2 and HbA1c from 9.6 ± 1.3 to 5.7 ± 1.5% at the 12-month follow-up. At the 3-year follow-up, the mean BMI was 32.1 ± 3.3 and HbA1c mean was 5.8 ± 0.9%. Diabetes remission was achieved by 84.1% of patients.

Conclusions

OAGB can be an excellent alternative to RYGB for the treatment of diabetes and obesity. Pre-operative medications may be used to predict postoperative diabetes remission, but not BMI.
