ObjectiveTo determine the impact of biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) surgery on cardiovascular risk profile and predicted cardiovascular risk in severely obese patients.Materials/MethodsWe compared 1-year follow-up anthropometric and metabolic profiles in severely obese who underwent BPD-DS (n = 73) with controls (severely obese without surgery) (n =3 3). The 10-year predicted risk for coronary heart disease (CHD) was estimated using the Framingham risk-tool. We assigned 10-year and lifetime predicted risks to stratify subjects into 3 groups: 1) high short-term predicted risk (≥ 10% 10-year risk or diagnosed diabetes), 2) low short-term (<10% 10-year risk)/low lifetime predicted risk or 3) low short-term/high lifetime predicted risk.ResultsDuring the follow-up period, body weight and body mass index decreased markedly in the surgical group (-52.1 ± 1.9 kg and -19.0 ± 0.6 kg/m(2) respectively, p<0.001) vs. (-0.7 ± 1.0 kg and -0.3 ± 0.4 kg/m(2), p = 0.51). Weight loss in the surgical group was associated with a reduction in HbA1C (6.2% vs. 5.1%), HOMA-IR (61.5 vs. 9.3), all lipoprotein levels, as well as blood pressure (p<0.001). The 10-year CHD predicted risk decreased by 43% in women and 33% in men, whereas the estimated CHD risk in the non surgical group did not change. Before surgery, none of the women and only 18% of men showed low short-term/low lifetime predicted risk, whereas a significant proportion of subjects had high short-term predicted risk (36% in women and 12% in men). Following surgery, 52% of women and 55% of men have a low short-term/low lifetime predicted risk.ConclusionsThese results highlight the cardiovascular benefits of BPD-DS and suggest a positive impact on predicted CHD risk in severely obese patients. Long-term studies are needed to confirm our results and to ascertain the effects on CHD risk estimates after BPD-DS surgery.© 2013.
