To evaluate the incidence and risk factors for the development of anemia after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB).
A retrospective analysis of patients undergoing RYGB from January 2003 to November 2007 was performed. All patients had a preoperative body mass index > 40 kg/m(2). A total of 206 patients were evaluated. All patients were given daily supplements of ferrous sulfate tablets for 2 wk following their operation. Hematological and metabolic indices were routinely evaluated following surgery. Patients were followed for a minimum of 86 wk.
There were 41 males and 165 females with an average age of 40.8 years. 21 patients (10.2%) developed post-operative anemia and 185 patients (89.8%) did not. Anemia was due to iron deficiency in all cases. The groups had similar demographics, surgical procedure and co-morbidities. Menstruation (P = 0.02) and peptic ulcer disease (P = 0.01) were risk factors for the development of post-operative anemia.
Iron deficiency anemia is frequent. RYGB surgery compounds occult blood loss. Increased ferrous sulfate supplementation may prevent iron depletion in populations at increased risk.
评估 Roux-en-Y 胃旁路术(RYGB)后贫血的发生率和相关危险因素。
对 2003 年 1 月至 2007 年 11 月行 RYGB 的患者进行回顾性分析。所有患者术前体重指数(BMI)>40kg/m²。共评估了 206 例患者。所有患者术后均连续 2 周每日服用硫酸亚铁片进行补铁。术后常规评估血液学和代谢指标。所有患者的随访时间均至少为 86 周。
男性 41 例,女性 165 例,平均年龄 40.8 岁。21 例(10.2%)患者术后发生贫血,185 例(89.8%)患者未发生贫血。所有贫血均归因于缺铁。两组患者的人口统计学、手术过程和合并症均相似。月经(P=0.02)和消化性溃疡病(P=0.01)是术后贫血发生的危险因素。
缺铁性贫血较为常见。RYGB 手术会导致隐匿性失血增加。增加硫酸亚铁的补充可能有助于预防高危人群的缺铁。
