any recent prospective studies have undoubtedly proven metabolic surgery to be the most effective treatment of T2DM
compared with medical management. Therefore bariatric surgeons have now to question the best surgical procedure to achieve
diabetes improvement or even resolution not only in severely obese patients but also in mildly obese ones without exposing them
to the risk of malnutrition. To achieve this goal, metabolic surgery can surely benefit from the previous results of general surgery in
regards to the very different effects of the various types of reconstruction after gastrectomy (Billroth I versus Billroth II and Roux en
Y) both in diabetic and non diabetic patients. This presentation reviews the results of general and oncological gastric surgery and their
implications in the field of diabetology. According to these data duodenal diversion reconstruction after gastrectomy significantly
improves T2DM in diabetic patients while it seems on the opposite to worthen glucose metabolism in non diabetic ones. These
conclusions should lead to exclude restrictive procedures without duodenal diversion in the surgical management of T2DM avoiding
much malabsorption and weight loss in thin diabetic patients
