Abstract

Despite the beneficial hypoglycemic and potentially curative effects in type 2 diabetes, large stomach volume deficits caused by Roux-en-Y gastrointestinal bypass (RYGB) surgery increase complications. Hypoglycemic effects of Braun surgery and RYGB surgery, both modified to maximally preserve stomach volume, were compared in rat type 2 diabetes models.
