Malabsorption following the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass
What is Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass?
• Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass both (?)
• Restrictive
• Malabsorptive (?)Components
Malabsorption vs. Restriction after long-limb RNY gastric bypass
• Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RNY) restricts food intake
• when the Roux limb is elongated to 150 cm
• IS the RNY malabsorptive?• Measure calorie reduction after RNY• Restriction vs Malabsorption• The contribution of malabsorption to the reduction in net energy absorption after long-limb Roux-en-Y gastric
bypass, Elizabeth A Odstrcil, et al. Am J Clin Nutr October 2010 vol. 92 no. 4 704-7

The contribution of malabsorption to the reduction in net energy absorption after long-limb Roux-en-Y gastric bypass
• Results:• RNY:• No significant effect on • Protein or Carbohydrate
absorption

RNY Malabsorption vs. Restriction
• 5 months after bypass, • Malabsorption reduced absorption by
124 kcal/d• Restriction of food intake reduced energy
absorption by 2,062 kcal/d• Restriction 16 times more important than
Malabsorption

RNY Malabsorption vs. Restriction
• 14 months after bypass, • Malabsorption reduced absorption of
combustible energy by 172 kcal/d• vs• Restriction of food intake reduced energy
absorption by 1,418 kcal/d

Failure of RNYCaloric Effect
RNY Malabsorption vs. Restriction
• Malabsorption ONLY 6%-11% reduction in calories
• RNY: Is Primarily a “Restrictive Procedure”
• Study Shows: Early signs of RNY caloric failure

The contribution of malabsorption to the reduction in net energy absorption after long-limb Roux-en-Y gastric bypass
• Dietary intake and net intestinal absorption of fat, protein, and carbohydrate were measured
• Calculated the total reduction in fat, protein, carbohydrate, and calories after RYGB
• Extent to which these reductions were due to restriction or malabsorption
• The contribution of malabsorption to the reduction in net energy absorption after long-limb Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, Elizabeth A Odstrcil, et al. Am J Clin Nutr October 2010 vol. 92 no. 4 704-713
The contribution of malabsorption to the reduction in net energy absorption after long-limb Roux-en-Y gastric bypass
• Fat absorption and malabsorption
• Average fat intake was
• 156 g/d before bypass,
• 50 g/d 5 mo after bypass, and
• 82 g/d 14 mo after bypass.

Bile Acid Depletion:Fat Malabsorption &
Treatment of Diabetes
Most Bariatric surgeons DO NOT
Understand Bile/Bile Acids
Bile Acids: Not Just for Fat Absorption
• Bile Acids Needed for Fat absorption (Decreased Bile Acids => Decreased Fat Absorption)
• Studies show that bile acids also play a large role in glucose homeostasis
Bile Acids: Not Just DetergentsBile Acids as Hormones
• Bile acids as hormones act on several Critical receptors:
• Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and • Pregnane X receptor (PXR), • Constitutive androstane receptor (CAR), • G-protein-coupled receptor TGR5. • Bile acids AS HORMONES regulate
Cholesterol, Glucose, and metabolism/energy homeostasis
What Most Bariatric Surgeons Do Not Understand
• Bile Acids Critical to Fat and Glucose Control in the Body
• Decreased Bile Acids =>Decreased Fat absorptionLowered Blood Glucose Levels
• MGB (Billroth II) => Decreased Bile Acids
• RNY does NOT Affect Bile Acid Pool
Study of long-limb Roux-en-Y gastric bypass
• Results: RNY does not cause bile acid malabsorption
• Fecal bile acid excretion average • Before: 0.8 g/d• Post Op 5 mo: 0.5 g/d • Post Op 14 mo: 0.7 g/d• Decreased Bile Acids Rx Diabetes• RNY Does Not Cause Loss of Bile
Bile Acid Sequestration Reduces Glucose Levels by Increasing Metabolic Clearance
• Bile acid sequestrants (BAS) reduce plasma glucose levels in type II diabetics
• BAS induced plasma glucose lowering by increasing metabolic clearance rate of glucose in peripheral tissues
• RNY Does Not Cause Loss of Bile• MGB Does Cause Bile Acid Losses
Bariatric Surgeons Forget History of GI Surgery
What have we learned from 100 years of GI Surgery?
Post Gastrectomy Steatorrhea
• For over 75 years authors have noted that • Fat Malabsorption/Steatorrhea common
post gastrectomy syndrome in some patients
• More common & Greater degree with • Billroth II >> Billroth I
• EVERSON TC. Experimental comparison of protein and fat assimilation after Billroth II, Billroth I, and segmental types of subtotal gastrectomy. Surgery. 1954 Sep;36(3):525-37
• MACLEAN LD, PERRY JF, KELLY WD, MOSSER DG, MANNICK A, WANGENSTEEN OH. Nutrition following subtotal gastrectomy of four types (Billroth I and II, segmental, and tubular resections). Surgery. 1954 May;35(5):705-18
• WOLLAEGER EE, WAUGH JM, POWER MH. Fat-assimilating capacity of the gastrointestinal tract after partial gastrectomy with gastroduodenostomy (Billroth I anastomosis). Gastroenterology. 1963 Jan;44:25-32
• …
100 Years of GI Surgery: Steatorrhea following Gastric Operations:
• What do we know:• Rare after gastro-jejunostomy or vagotomy
alone. • Rare after Billroth I• Especially Common after Polya gastrectomy
with BII. • (Butler, 1961)
Polya Type Gastro-Jejunostomy
NOTE:Large
Wide OpenGastro-
jejunostomy
Opinion Among BPD Surgeons
• Length of the Common Channel is the Critical Factor for Fat malabsorption & weight loss
• We review Animal studies and MGB results that suggest this is not the case
• Am J Surg. 2005 May;189(5):536-40, Common channel length predicts outcomes of biliopancreatic diversion alone and with the duodenal switch surgery, McConnell DB, O'rourke RW, Deveney CW
NUTRIENT ABSORPTION in the SMALL INTESTINE: Remember the Basics
• Duodenum and Upper Jejunum: most minerals
• Jejunum and Upper Ileum: carbohydrates, amino acids, water-soluble vitamins
• Jejunum: absorbs most of lipids and fat-soluble vitamins
• Terminal Ileum: Bile,Vit B12
Fat absorption and the Length of Billroth II Afferent Limb
• Experiment• Question: Increase length of
afferent limb associated with increased fat malabsorption
• Animals underwent a 50% distal gastrectomy with an antecolic
• Polya-type Billroth II anastomosis
Fat absorption and the Billroth II Afferent loop
• 50% distal gastrectomy with an antecolic
• Polya-type Billroth II anastomosis
• Afferent limb of
• 30cm, 60cm, 90cm
Fat absorption and the Billroth II Afferent Limb: RESULTS
• PreOp: Fecal excretion on a 127 Gm. diet 2.4% of the ingested fat.
• Similar results in dogs and in humans
• Animals with BII + 30cm afferent limbs
• Able to digest and absorb the dietary fat without any apparent difficulty
Fat absorption and the Billroth II Afferent loop
• Average fecal excretion diet was 2.4% of the ingested fat.
• Longer Loops steatorrhea increased• 30 cm. limb fecal fat 2.4% (No Change)• 60 cm. limb fecal fat excretion 10.2%• 90 cm. limb 28.2%

Fat absorption and the Billroth II Afferent loop
• Average fecal excretion Pre Op 2.4% of ingested fat
• Longer Limb increased steatorrhea• 30 cm. limb fecal fat 2.4% (No Change)• 60 cm. limb fecal fat excretion 10.2%• 90 cm. limb 28.2%
Fat MAL-absorption and the Billroth II Afferent LIMB
• Afferent limb most important factor post gastrectomy steatorrhea, “LENGTH”
• Animals with short afferent loops NO significant steatorrhea.
• As the length of the afferent limb increased, a concomitant and dramatic rise in fecal fat excretion was noted.
Fat MAL-absorption and the Billroth II Afferent loop
• Malabsorption is NOT due to bypass of the upper jejunum ALONE
• Kremen’s Study:• Over half the jejunum can be
bypassed without producing steatorrhea.
An Experimental Evaluation of the Nutritional Importance of Proximal and Distal Small
Intestine
• Arnold J. Kremen, et al.Ann Surg. 1954 September; 140(3): 439–447
Kremen, et al.
• “Experimental studies in dogs reveal that animals can bypass
• 50 to 70 per cent of their small intestine
• and maintain a near normal nutritional status”
Experimental Evaluation of the Nutritional Importance of Proximal and Distal Small Intestine
• Study showed that • Bypass of major lengths of the
proximal small intestine, • Weight is well maintained • No great interference with fat
absorption • NOTE:
Contradiction with Prior Study
Experimental Evaluation of the Nutritional Importance of Proximal and Distal Small Intestine
• 50 - 70% of the small bowel bypassed
• Proximal and distal ends were exteriorized as a cutaneous stoma.
• Intestinal continuity was re-established by end-to-end anastomosis
50% of Jejunum Bypassed:No Weight Loss!
Massive bypass = No Effect
• The small intestine in adults is a long and narrow tube about 7 meters (23 feet) long
• 50% Bypass = 11.5 ft (3.5 meters)
• Minimal Weight Loss!
70% Bowel BypassedMinimal Weight Loss
Massive bypass = Little Effects!
• The small intestine in adults is a long and narrow tube about 7 meters (23 feet) long
• 70% Bypass = 16 ft (5 meters)
• 5% weight loss
70% Bypass = Little Effect
• Group IV animals, which were similar to Group I except that 70% instead of 50% of proximal small bowel removed from intestinal continuity,
• Lost about five per cent of their preoperative weight and then stabilized at this level.
Transit Time & Fat Absorption
• 50-70% Bypass
• Made Little Difference in
• Transit Time or
• Fat Absorption NOT affected
Experimental Evaluation of the Nutritional Importance of Proximal and Distal Small Intestine
• CONCLUSIONS• The proximal 50 to 70 per cent of the small
intestine can be removed with no apparent ill effects.
• Weight is maintained, and protein and fat absorption are not significantly altered.
• Arnold J. Kremen, John H. Linner, and Charles H. Nelson
Bypass of Jejunum; Experimental Results:No Fat Malbsorption or Major Fat
Malabsorption
• 2 Studies; 2 Different Findings• Massive Small Bowel Bypass
=> Minimal Effects• Moderate Small Bowel Bypass
=>Major Effects• What is the Difference?
It’s the Billroth II
Billroth II + Moderate Bypass=
Fat Malabsorption and Good Weight Loss
RNY
• Primarily Restrictive
• Minor fat malabsorption
• No Malabsorption of Protein or Carbohydrate
• Restriction begins to fade early
