Journal ArticleDOI

The Mechanism of Diabetes Control After Gastrointestinal Bypass Surgery Reveals a Role of the Proximal Small Intestine in the Pathophysiology of Type 2 Diabetes

TL;DR: This study shows that bypassing a short segment of proximal intestine directly ameliorates type 2 diabetes, independently of effects on food intake, body weight, malabsorption, or nutrient delivery to the hindgut.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transatlantic robot-assisted telesurgery

TL;DR: It is shown that robot-assisted remote telesurgery can be safely carried out across transoceanic distances and will eliminate geographical constraints and make surgical expertise available throughout the world, improving patient treatment and surgical training.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Duodenal–Jejunal Exclusion in a Non-obese Animal Model of Type 2 Diabetes: A New Perspective for an Old Disease

TL;DR: Results of this study support the hypothesis that the bypass of duodenum and jejunum can directly control type 2 diabetes and not secondarily to weight loss or treatment of obesity and suggest a potential role of the proximal gut in the pathogenesis of the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcontinental robot-assisted remote telesurgery: feasibility and potential applications.

TL;DR: Future developments of computer technology and their surgical applications, particularly in the field of virtual reality three-dimensional reconstructions of patient’s specific anatomy and pathology, are the possible solutions to overcome the lack of direct patient-surgeon contact.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential of Surgery for Curing Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

TL;DR: Although controlled trials are needed to verify the effectiveness on nonobese individuals, gastric bypass surgery has the potential to change the current concepts of the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes and the management of this disease.
