Background
Evidence of the positive effects of gastric banding on patients with diabetes has continued to increase. The long-term follow-up of such patients, however, has been limited. The purpose of the present study was to provide the long-term outcomes of patients with diabetes undergoing laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding at our institution.Methods
From January 2002 through June 2004, 102 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus underwent laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding. The study parameters included preoperative age, gender, race, body mass index, duration of diabetes before surgery, fasting glucose level, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and medications used. Preoperative data from all patients were collected prospectively and entered into an institutional review board-approved database. Beginning in 2008, efforts were made to collect the 5-year follow-up data.
Results
Of the 102 patients, 7 were excluded because they had not reached the 5-year follow-up point (2 patients had had the band removed early and 5 patients had died; 2 of cancer and 3 of unknown causes), leaving 95 patients for the present study. The mean preoperative age was 49.3 years (range 21.3?8.4). The mean preoperative body mass index was 46.3 kg/m2 (range 35.1?1.9) and had decreased to 35.0 kg/m2 (range 21.1?3.7) by 5 years of follow-up, yielding a mean percentage of excess weight loss of 48.3 % . The mean duration of the diabetes diagnosis before surgery was 6.5 years. Of 94 patients, 83 (88.3 % ) were taking medications preoperatively, with 14.9 % overall taking insulin. At 5 years postoperatively, 33 (46.5 % ) of 71 patients were taking medications, with 8.5 % taking insulin. The mean fasting preoperative glucose level was 146.0 mg/dL. The glucose level had decreased to 118.5 mg/dL at 5 years postoperatively (P = .004). The mean HbA1c level was 7.53 preoperatively in 72 patients and was 6.58 at 5 years postoperatively in 64 patients (P <.001). Overall, diabetes had resolved (no medication requirement, with HbA1c <6 and/or glucose <100 mg/dL) in 23 (39.7 % ) of 58 patients and had improved (use of fewer medications and/or fasting glucose levels of 100?25 mg/dL) in 41 (71.9 % ) of 57 patients. The combined improvement/remission rate was 80 % (64 of 80 patients).
Conclusion
Our data have demonstrated that laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding results in a substantial sustained positive effect on diabetes in morbidly obese patients, with a significant reduction in HbA1c and an 80 % overall rate of improvement/remission.
