Certain metabolic consequences of jejunoileal bypass

R Bendezu, RG Wieland, SG Green, MC Hallberg and RW Marsters

Jejunoileal bypass for obesity has been shown to be associated with increased hepatic triglycerides during the period of brisk weight loss. The current report describes certain metabolic changes observed in 29 patients 21 months after bypass. Significant decreases in serum cholesterol, serum triglycerides, blood sugar after a glucose load, and fasting plasma insulin levels were noted. Increased oxalate excretion and occasional episodes of hypomagnesemia occurred. Repeated clinical and laboratory observations by a medical-surgical team offer the best opportunity to evaluate this procedure.
