[Comparative efficacy of three bariatric surgery procedures in obese patients with type 2 diabetes].

This retrospective work compares the efficacy of three procedures of bariatric surgery in obese patients with type 2 diabetes : gastric bypass (n = 22), sleeve gastrectomy (n = 18) and Magenstrasse & Mill gastroplasty (also known as reversible sleeve (n = 19). The three interventions result in a remarkable weight loss after one year, a better glycaemic control, with often a remission of diabetes, a reduction of blood pressure and an improvement of lipid profile, allowing an interruption or a dose reduction of concomitant medications. Overall, classical sleeve provides almost similar results as gastric bypass and appears slightly better than reversible sleeve. These results deserve confirmation in studies with more patients followed for a longer term.
