Mr. Min had an operation in China earlier. Because of his obesity, he used to rely on a ventilator to barely sleep every day. After the operation on June 5438+ 10 in 2006, his weight was reduced from 260 kg to the present 150 kg. As his weight gradually returned to normal level, his diabetes was relieved.
Mr. Min is not an isolated case. According to reports, Australian researchers selected 50 diabetic patients with an average weight of 300 pounds (about 136 kg) with obvious mobility difficulties, and performed "gastric banding" surgery respectively, and tried to lose weight by other methods for more than 5 years. The results showed that 32 cases (64%) had diabetes remission in 65438 0 years after operation. In addition, among 34 patients (68%) who had a history of hypertension before operation or found hypertension, 27 patients' blood pressure was improved, of which 15 patients had no hypertension and their sleep quality was improved after operation.
Zou said that at present, there are about 400,000 obese patients in the world who have had this kind of surgery. Generally, patients lose 3-5 kilograms per month after operation, 1 can lose 50% of the overweight part within two years, and their health has also been effectively improved.

Patients undergoing such operations must meet the following conditions: metabolic disorder syndrome related to simple obesity, such as type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, sleep apnea syndrome, etc. ; Men's waist circumference is greater than or equal to 90 cm, and women's waist circumference is greater than or equal to 80 cm, with dyslipidemia; Weight has been increasing for more than 5 years, and the body mass index (body mass index = weight divided by the square of height) is greater than or equal to 32; The age is between 18 and 60 years old; Conservative treatments such as diet control, physical exercise and drugs are ineffective 1 year; Eliminate obesity caused by endocrine diseases; Non-alcohol or drug dependent patients.
The cost of the whole operation is about 40 thousand yuan. Regarding the risk of surgery, Zou did not deny that "the main risk of this operation is infection and displacement, so the risk of reoperation is not ruled out at present." However, according to the 5-year follow-up results, the mortality rate of surgical patients is 0.68%, while the mortality rate of patients without surgery is as high as 6. 17%, and the risk of morbid obesity without treatment is higher than that of surgery.
