sleeve replaces gastro surgery
http://www.diabetesincontrol.com/re...oryarticle=5844
This discusses a teflon sleeve replacing gastric surgery, and reproducing the 'benefits' of gastric surgery for the control of diabetes. I would consider this as research in exploring diabetes/incretin control, and NOT a 'ready for primetime' procedure. An obvious question is this totally reversible? The surgery is not. Also does it cause the malnutrition that Jenny suspected? If so we rather would have diabetes.
