Abstract
Bariatric surgery results in better weight loss and remarkable resolution of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has over years proved to be an excellent procedure with low morbidity and results in effective, sustainable and long term weight loss. The motive of this study was to review overall effect of LSG in resolution of type 2 Diabetes mellitus. Sixteen patients were studied retrospectively and prospectively. The effect of LSG was studied at 3 and 6 months after surgery on changes in BMI & blood sugar. Sixteen patients were diabetic which was resolved after 6 months in 13 patients and improvement was seen in other three patients. Excess weight loss was 31.21 and 64.05 % 3 and 6 months respectively.
