Abstract

Excessive deposition of adipose tissue in the body is often associated with dyslipidemic disorders and various risk factors for cardiovascular disease. The abdominal-visceral form is a serious predictor of cardiovascular mortality. The aim of the study was to establish the prevalence of lipid metabolism disorders in patients with morbid obesity and to evaluat e the influence of surgical methods of treatment, namely biliopancreatic shunting in the Hess-Marceau modification and longitudinal gastrectomy in the postoperative period on the degree of correction of dyslipidemia in these patients. 57 patients (36 (63.2%) women and 21 (36.8%) men) with morbid obesity were in-depth examined , age from 21 to 62 years (mean age 40.0±1.38 years) , who were under observation at the Department of Surgery N 1 , SE DMA. Significant violations of lipid metabolism in these patients were revealed, which significantly correlated with indicators of excess ive body weight. There were established general trends towards a significant decrease (p <0.001) of body mass index and BMI in patients of both groups after 3 months from the start of treatment, which led to a significant improvement in lipid metabolism.
