Postprandial Normoglycemic Hypokalemia—an Overlooked Complication to Gastric Bypass Surgery?

Abstract

Obesity is one of the major health problems of the world, and one of the most common surgical treatments is the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. This can however lead to problems with postprandial hypoglycemia, but sometimes, the meal test does not render any signs of hypoglycemia. Here, 3 cases are presented with postprandial normoglycemic hypokalemia. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]
