When Hans Rueffert learned he had gastric stomach cancer at age 33, he had to have half of his stomach and half of his esophagus removed, followed by chemotherapy and radiation treatment. However, because gastric juices were leaking into his lungs, he subsequently had to undergo surgery removing both his stomach and esophagus in full. It was a battle, but Hans achieved survivorship. He has to watch what he eats and how much he eats, but Hans has resumed his life as a chef, and is an active participant in competitive pickle ball.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2022.10.17.512615v1?rss=1 Authors: Emiliano, A., Kraljevic, M., Lopatinsky, N. R., Batista, R., Jiang, C., Schwartz, G. J. Abstract: Although sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is the most commonly performed bariatric surgery in the US, its mechanistic underpinnings have not been fully determined. Thus, we set out to investigate whether changes in the peripheral sympathetic system could mediate the metabolic effects of SG. The celiac-superior mesenteric ganglia (CSMG) lie juxtaposed to the stomach and supply the sympathetic innervation of the stomach, as well as to numerous other intra-abdominal organs. Here we investigated the effects of SG on the CSMG. SG led to the degeneration of neurons in the CSMG, as evidenced by chromatolysis, which was not found in control mice. Furthermore, CSMG ablation (CGX) completely recapitulated the glycemic and weight loss effects of SG, promoting weight loss at the expense of fat mass. Norepinephrine tissue content measurement by high performance liquid chromatography revealed that liver, duodenum, and ileum were organs where both SG and CGX displayed evidence of significant sympathetic denervation. Both SG and CGX were associated with increased levels of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and high free fatty acid content in the stools. In conclusion, CSMG neuronal degeneration caused by SG may be a partial mediator of the metabolic effects of this type of bariatric surgery. Copy rights belong to original authors.

When Cherielee was 26 years old, she was found to carry a mutation in the CDH1 gene. Her genetic diagnosis led her down a path that included a prophylactic gastrectomy at the age of 30, followed by multiple complications. Today, Cherielee is 31 years old, still recovering but very glad of her decision to undergo prophylactic surgery and grateful for her aunt's cancer diagnosis and testing that allowed her to take steps to prevent cancer. Cherie is passionate about the need for doctors to focus on their patients’ cancer family history and either offer hereditary cancer testing or refer their patients on to a genetic counselor.

Healthcare Elsewhere | The Medical Tourism Show with John Cote
Today we are very fortunate to have two amazing guests on this episode, Dr. Thomas Clark and his wife Karol Clark. Dr. Clark who is a four time best selling author and one of the most experienced and sought-after Bariatric Surgeons in the United States.
Background: Obesity is associated with abnormal fasting and postprandial lipids, which may link obesity with atherosclerosis. We explored fasting and postprandial lipids in morbidly obese patients treated with sleeve gastrectomy and in control subjects. Methods: After fasting for 12 h 15 morbidly obese patients (BMI 51.4 +/- 6.5 kg/m(2), 43.7 +/- 12.6 years) received a standardized oral fat load before and 3 months after bariatric surgery (sleeve gastrectomy). Controls (n=9, BMI 23.1 +/- 1.4 kg/m(2)) were studied once. Plasma was obtained fasting and then postprandially every 2 h for 8 h. Triglycerides (TG), chylomicron-TG (CM-TG), VLDL/chylomicron-remnant (VLDL/CR)-TG, cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, VLDL/CR-cholesterol and HDL-cholesterol were isolated by ultracentrifugation at each time point. Postprandial values were expressed as area under the curve (AUC) and incremental area under the curve (iAUC). In addition, fasting glucose and insulin values and HOMA-IR-Index was measured (n=14). Results: Compared to controls morbidly obese patients had elevated TG and slightly altered postprandial lipids. Following surgery (weight loss 23.4 kg +/- 6.2 kg; 150 mg/dl) a similar pattern was observed. Fasting insulin and HOMA were reduced significantly (-51.9%; p=0.004 and -47.9%; p=0.011). Conclusions: Three months after sleeve gastrectomy fasting and postprandial lipoprotein metabolism and glucose metabolism is improved in morbidly obese patients. The potential mechanisms may relate to decreased caloric intake but also to hormonal changes.
In Episode 15 we take a look at the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy, discuss whether or not weight loss surgery is the easy way out and take a look at a program designed to have you running a 5k in nine short weeks.
