Abstract
SALAS-ALVAREZ, Jesús M. et al. A novel surgical technique focused on the study of the ileum: The preduodenal ileal transposition. Cir. cir. [online]. 2020, vol.88, n.4, pp.402-409. Epub Nov 08, 2021. ISSN 2444-054X. https://doi.org/10.24875/ciru.20001272.
Aims:
Our main goal is to study the effects on the carbohydrate metabolism. Thus, we designed various experimental surgical models on healthy non-obese Wistar rats to reproduce several conditions. In this sense, we report a new experimental model. It is well known that bariatric surgery has important effects on the control of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. The underlying reasons are yet unknown, although the different theories focused in the release of different hormones after the pass of the nutrients through the tract. These released hormones have opposite effects that come together in a balanced glycemic metabolism.
Materials and methods:
After bariatric surgical techniques, the modified anatomy resulted in an imbalance of the secreted hormones. Wistar rats were randomized in two groups Sham and surgical group. Our model consisted on the transposition of the terminal ileum right after the pylorus. Weight gain, food intake, and basal glycemia were measured weekly.
Results:
We did not obtain significant differences between both groups for these functional variables.
Conclusions:
This technique involved an early pass of the bolus through the ileum. The change on the luminal pH, along with the lack of enzymes to absorb the content, or the changes in the release of several hormones must be variables to the study. The mortality rate was assumable considering it was an experimental model on animals.
