2. 1. Gastric Bypass : Facilitating the Procedure and Long-term Results

   Author : David Edholm; Magnus Sundbom; Per Hellman; Anders Thorell; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Morbid obesity; Gastric bypass; Laparoscopy; Low-calorie diet; Magnetic resonance imaging; Magnetic resonance spectroscopy; Kirurgi; Surgery;

   Abstract : Gastric bypass achieves weight loss in the morbidly obese. Preoperative weight loss is used to reduce the enlarged fatty liver that otherwise reduces visibility during surgery. The purpose of gastric bypass is to provide patients with long-term weight loss. READ MORE

4. 2. Bariatric Surgery : Outcomes after Gastric Bypass and Duodenal Switch

   Author : Martin Löfling Skogar; Magnus Sundbom; Ville Wallenius; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Body composition; fat-free mass; resting metabolic rate; bariatric surgery; obesity; Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass; Duodenal Switch; air-displacement plethysmography; Bod Pod; indirect calorimetry assessment; BAROS; quality of life; weight loss; diabetes; hypertension; dyslipidmia; depression; pain; antidepressants; opioids; complications; healthcare consumption; adverse events; Surgery; Kirurgi;

   Abstract : Obesity is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. A BMI >40 kg/m2 shortens life expectancy by about 10 years. The obesity related comorbidities diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and sleep apnea contributes to the increased risk of cardiovascular events. There is also an increased risk of some forms of cancer (e. READ MORE

5. 3. Gastric bypass : Technical aspects and long-term results

   Author : Eduardo Sima; Magnus Sundbom; Mikael Wirén; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) achieves superior short- and long-term weight loss compared to other weight loss modalities. Different operative techniques have been developed to technically facilitate the surgical procedure, with consequences in the form of an array of postoperative complications and gastrointestinal symptoms.

6. 4. Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass : Hand-assisted Laparoscopy and Investigation of the Excluded Stomach

   Author : Magnus Sundbom; Sven Gustavsson; Jan Hedenbro; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; gastric bypass; morbid obesity; laparoscopy; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Surgery; kirurgi;

   Abstract : Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) sustains weight loss and ameliorates diseases common in the morbid obese (BMI>40 kg/m2), but leaves the stomach and duodenum inaccessible. Morbidly obese patients have increased operative risks and in other fields minimal surgery is known to facilitate the postoperative course. READ MORE

7. 5. Gastrointestinal Physiology and Results following Bariatric Surgery

   Author : Jakob Hedberg; Magnus Sundbom; Näslund Erik; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bariatric surgery; gastric bypass; biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch; PYY; stomal ulcer; gastric emptying; Surgery; Kirurgi; Kirurgi; Surgery;

   Abstract : The number of operations for morbid obesity is rising fast. We have examined aspects of postoperative physiology and results after bariatric surgery. The pH in the proximal pouch after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) was investigated with catheter-based and wire-less technique. READ MORE
