About
Diabetes is now or soon will be a worldwide epidemic. Diabetes has impact on both healthcare costs in addition to the costs in human lives, suffering and disability. Treatment that lowers Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) improved outcomes. Studies have demonstrated that both general surgery and bariatric procedures may improve or reverse diabetes. In several studies the Billroth II reconstruction following gastrectomy was the most effective surgical technique in improving or reversing Diabetes. The purpose of this study is to analyze the outcomes of the Mini-Gastric Bypass-Original Technique (MGB-OT) version of the One Anastomosis Bypass (OAGB) to investigate the association of a "Tailored" Bilio-pancreatic Limb Length (BPLL) with the HbA1c changes.
Full description
There is general agreement that Diabetes is now or soon will be a worldwide epidemic. Studies also make clear the devastating impact of diabetes on both healthcare costs in addition to the costs in human lives, suffering and disability. It is also clear that treatment that lowers Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) will result in improved outcomes proportional to the decrease, saving both lives and costs. Unfortunately medical and lifestyle therapy routinely result in less than ideal resolution of elevated HbA1c levels. Studies have demonstrated that both general surgery and bariatric procedures may improve or reverse diabetes. In several studies the Billroth II reconstruction following gastrectomy is the most effective surgical technique in improving or reversing Diabetes. The purpose of this study is to analyze the outcomes of the Mini-Gastric Bypass-Original Technique (MGB-OT) version of the One Anastomosis Bypass (OAGB) to investigate the association of a "Tailored" Bilio-pancreatic Limb Length (BPLL) with the HbA1c changes.
