Abstract :
[en] Bariatric surgery has expanded in recent years with the development of metabolic surgery in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and a body mass index < 35 kg/m2. The management of T2D after a gastric bypass or a sleeve gastrectomy requires some cautions, depending on the timing after the surgical procedure and the patient's evolution. Soon after the intervention, safety should be prioritized. So, gliflozins should be interrupted to avoid euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis, while sulfonylureas should be stopped and insulin doses reduced to limit the risk of hypoglycemia. If a remission of T2D occurs, the maintenance of metformin or of a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist should be considered with the main objective to prolong the remission. Finally, if surgery fails to eradicate T2D or if a relapse occurs after a transient remission, the management of hyperglycemia should a priori follow the same rules as those used for patients with T2D who are not treated with bariatric/metabolic surgery. © 2023 Elsevier Masson SAS
