INTRODUCTION onsidering the first historical cases of jejunoileal bypass done in the beginning of the 1950s by Victor Henriksson in Sweden and Richard Varco in United States of America, bariatric surgery has completed a long medicalC history with the proposition of several surgical alternatives, reaching global numbers around 500.000 cases yearly2,7,9. Influenced by the jejunoileal bypass serious side effects involving severe nutritional problems, liver and kidney complications and poor quality of life related to this pure malabsortive cluster of procedures, the evolution of the bariatric surgery was divided in two main pathways. The first one, with Mason and Ito in1967 launching the first generation omega gastric bypass, that overtime resulted in the nowadays-leading Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB)2,20,22,25.Since the first series in 1994 by Wittgrove, the laparoscopic RYGB has been the most performed bariatric procedure in the last 22 years and was ABCD Arq Bras Cir Dig 2016;29(Supl.1):85-90 85 ORIGINAL ARTICLE – TECHNIQUE considered as the gold standard in this field34.For the last five Preoperative set-up years sleeve gastrectomy has emerged and gained surgeon’s After adequate selection and appropriate surgical preference exponentially up to reaches the position of the recommendation all patients were submitted to multidisciplinary most performed surgery in some countries, including USA2,6. team preparation.

DeBakey Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Houston, Texas, USA The prevalence of severe obesity in both the general and the chronic kidney disease (CKD) populations continues to rise, with more than one-fifth of CKD patients in the United States having a body mass index of $35 kg/m2. Severe obesity has significant renal consequences, including increased risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and nephrolithiasis. Bariatric surgery represents an effective method for achieving sustained weight loss, and evidence from randomized controlled trials suggests that bariatric surgery is also effective in improving blood pressure, reducing hyperglycemia, and even inducing diabetes remis- sion. There is also observational evidence suggesting that bariatric surgery may diminish the long-term risk of kidney function decline and ESRD. Bariatric surgery appears to be relatively safe in patients with CKD, with postoperative complications only slightly higher than in the general bariatric surgery popula- tion. The use of bariatric surgery in patients with CKD might help prevent progression to ESRD or enable selected ESRD patients with severe obesity to become candidates for kidney transplantation.

They were related to DNA and protein content. The protein/DNA ratio fell 28-43 % postoperatively. Except for ileal lactase and sucrase all enzymes showed decreased levels when expressed per mg protein and an even more pronounced decrease when related to DNA. Lactase and sucrase levels in ileum were increased or unchanged. A constant correlation between the amount of immunoreactive enzyme protein and enzymatic activity was shown for all enzymes except maltase. The results suggest that the bypass operation is followed http://gut.bmj.com/ by an increased amount of enterocytes devoid of or low in enzymatic activity and protein content.

    A History of Bariatric Surgery The Maturation of a Medical Discipline Adam C. Celio, MD, Walter J. Pories, MD* KEYWORDS Bariatric Obesity Metabolic surgery Intestinal bypass Gastric bypass Gastric sleeve Gastric band Gastric balloon KEY POINTS The history of bariatric surgery, one of the great medical advances of the last century, again documents that science progresses not as a single idea by one person, but rather in small collaborative steps that take decades to accept. Bariatric surgery, now renamed “metabolic surgery,” has, for the first time, provided cure for some of the most deadly diseases, including type 2 diabetes, hypertension, severe obesity, NASH, and hyperlipidemias, among others, that were previously considered incurable and for which there were no effective therapies. With organization, a common database, and certification of centers of excellence, bariat- ric surgery, once one of the most dangerous operations, is now performed throughout the United States with the same safety as a routine cholecystectomy. RECOGNITION Obesity is now a worldwide public health problem, an epidemic, with increasing inci- dence and prevalence, high costs, and associated comorbidities.1 Although the genes from our ancestors were helpful in times of potential famine, now in times of plenty, they have contributed to obesity.1–4 The history of obesity is related to the history of food; the human diet has changed considerably over the last 700,000 years. Our an- cestors at one time were hunter-gatherers, consuming large and small game along with nuts and berries. Their diets were high in protein and their way of life was stren- uous; they were well suited for times of famine.

This study aimed to determine the incidence of CL in obese Chilean patients 12 months after BS and identify risk factors for development of gallstones. Methods Retrospective study of patients who underwent BS in 2014. Patients with preoperative negative abdominal ultrasound (US) for CL and follow-up for at least than 12 months were included. Patients underwent US at 6 months and 12 months. We analyzed sex, age, hypertension, dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes mellitus, body mass index (BMI), surgical procedure, percentage of excess BMI loss (%EBMIL) at 6 months, and BMI at 6 months. Results Of 279 patients who underwent bariatric surgery during 2014, 66 had previous gallbladder disease and 176 met the inclusion criteria (82.6%), while 54.6% were female. The mean age was 37.8 ± 10.5 years and preoperative BMI was 37.5 kg/m2. BMI and %EBMIL at 6 months were 27.8 ± 3.3 kg/m2 and 77.9 ± 33.6%, respectively. At 12 months after BS, CL was found in 65 patients (36.9%). Hypertension turned out to be protective against occurrence of gallstones at 1 year with an OR 0.241.

Tel: +1-713-790-3140; Fax: +1-713-790-3235; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Jejunoileal bypass (JIB) was developed as a surgical treatment for morbid obesity in the early 1950s. However, this procedure is now known to be associated with multiple metabolic complications and has subsequently been abandoned as a viable bariatric procedure. Some of these known complications include renal stone formation, liver failure, migratory arthritis, fat- soluble deficiencies, blind-loop syndrome and severe diarrhea. Additionally, there have been animal models suggesting colon dysplasia after JIB. To our knowledge however, in humans, no colon cancers have been attributed to JIB in the litera- ture. Here we report a 63-year-old morbidly obese female who had a JIB surgery in 1973 and subsequently was found to have numerous sessile colonic polyps throughout her colon and adenocarcinoma of the ascending colon without any family his- tory of colonic polyposis syndromes or colon cancer.

In rats JIB causes adaptive colonic hyperplasia and enhances colorectal neoplasia. In this study crypt cell production rate (CCPR) was measured stathmokinetically in cultured rectal biopsies from nine patients with JIB and seven controls without intestinal operations or disease. Crypt cell production rate in the group with JIB was more than double that ofcontrols (12.80 (2.67) v 6.23 (1.49) cells/crypt/h: p<0001). There were no significant differences in crypt morphometry and histological examination of rectal biopsies was normal.

WALTON1 From the 'Department of Investigative Pathology, the Medical School, Birmingham, and the 2Department of Surgery, General Hospital, Birmingham SUMMARY Postoperative arthropathy has been reported in patients undergoing jejunoileal bypass for morbid obesity. The true frequency of this complication, and its independence from pre- existing joint disease and from osteomalacia, have not been clearly established. Of 107 patients who had undergone jejunoileal bypass, and in whom osteomalacia had been excluded, 38 developed a distinctive arthropathy. This consisted of episodic polyarthralgia, and occasionally arthritis, affecting both large and small joints. The articular symptom complex was independent of other major postoperative complications and unrelated to metabolic disturbances consequent upon rapid weight reduction. Preoperative joint symptoms had a similar incidence in those who did and in those who did not subsequently develop the postoperative arthropathy.
