Abstract

Severe obesity is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and both resolve with weight loss after bariatric operations. Intestinal hormones have been identified which are stimulated by rapid nutrient delivery to the lower small bowel after certain weight-loss operations. These incretins stimulate secretion and hypertrophy of the pancreatic beta cells. Surgical procedures are now being performed to treat diabetes in adults of lesser weight, and the importance of ruling out latent autoimmune diabetes in the adult (a variety of type 1) is suggested, before experimenting with these procedures.A obesidade grau III está francamente associada ao risco e à presença do diabetes tipo 2, sendo as duas condições passíveis de resolução com as cirurgias bariátricas. Hormônios gastrointestinais que formam eixo enteroinsular têm sido identificados, sendo mais intensa e rapidamente liberados após os procedimentos antiobesidade. Esses hormônios, entre os quais as incretinas, estimulam a secreção e a hipertrofia da células betapancreáticas. Novos procedimentos têm sido desenvolvidos para tratar o diabetes tipo 2 em adultos com obesidade em graus menos intensos. No entanto, é necessária a exclusão de pacientes com diabetes autoimune latente do adulto (LADA - uma variedade do diabetes tipo 1) antes da indicação de um procedimento cirúrgico.
