ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND/AIM:
We investigated the postoperative treatment status for diabetes mellitus and perioperative HbA1c levels in patients with diabetes mellitus and examined the effects of clinical factors on the remission of diabetes mellitus. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
In this study, 126 patients with gastric cancer were considered to have diabetes mellitus preoperatively, of whom 79 were treated with oral antidiabetic drugs and/or insulin treatment. We compared diabetic treatment status and HbA1c values between the preoperative and postoperative periods in patients who underwent gastrectomy and examined the effects of clinical factors on improving diabetes mellitus.RESULTS:
Of the 79 patients treated preoperatively for diabetes mellitus, 34 (43%) discontinued all medications for diabetes mellitus and for 37 (47%) the therapeutic dose was reduced or switched from insulin to oral antidiabetic drugs. Total gastrectomy was an independent factor for remission of antidiabetic treatments after gastrectomy. Concerning HbA1c levels, only the absence of preoperative insulin use was an independent factor for improvement. However, reconstruction was not a significantly correlated factor for the improvement of postoperative HbA1c levels and reduction of antidiabetic medications after distal gastrectomy.CONCLUSION:
Almost all patients discontinued or had their dose of antidiabetic medications reduced after gastrectomy in clinical practice, and special attention should be paid in the management methods for diabetes mellitus in patients who underwent total gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Palabras clave
