Metabolic Surgery For Type 2 Diabetes-47044

Product Code: 001

Insulin is necessary for pancreatic cells to use the sugar taken into the body as energy. However, if insulin is not produced by the body or is produced incompletely, it is called type 1 diabetes. So, “what is type 2 diabetes?” If the pancreas produces insulin but cannot use it for some reason, it is called type 2 diabetes. The patient group that can be treated with surgical methods is the type 2 group. On the other hand, surgery is not recommended for those in the type 1 group. Because in order for these surgeries to take place, the patient must have insulin production. Resistance to insulin can be broken with these surgeries and more economical use of insulin can be achieved. The purpose of surgical intervention in this disease is to help the insulin produced by the body to be used. In other words, in order for this surgery to be performed, the patient must not have type 1 diabetes and even if he has type 2 diabetes, there must still be a part of his pancreas that produces insulin.
