Comparative evaluation of different types of bariatric surgery

Introduction. The use of bariatric surgery as a treatment for obesity has increased dramatically over the past few years. Because the results in obese patients with type 2 diabetes were so impressive, the International Diabetes Federation recommended considering bariatric surgery as an acceptable treatment option in patients with a BMI of 30-35 kg / m2 when diabetes cannot be adequately controlled with traditional therapies. The aim of the study is to compare the results of bariatric surgery in patients with metabolic syndrome according to the dynamics of body mass index and major orexigenic and anorexigenic hormones. Material and Methods. The results of surgical treatment of 19 patients with morbid obesity (5 men and 14 women) aged 44 ± 3.26 years with a body mass index ˃40 kg / m2 were evaluated. The control group consisted of 12 patients with normal body mass index and no manifestations of metabolic syndrome. Results. Our study also demonstrated the positive effect of LGAE on hormonal parameters with a decrease in ghrelin and leptin. This helped reduce BMI by 10.12% after 6 months. At the same time there is an increase in adiponectin and resistin. Conclusions. LGAE in patients with ghrelin-associated obesity is possible as an alternative intervention, given its good tolerability. Or, as the first preparatory stage of comprehensive surgical treatment in obese patients who are not good candidates for standard bariatric surgery.
