Bariatric surgery is one of the most effective long-term solutions for treating obesity due to its sustained weight loss and reduction of obesity-related comorbidities. However, nutritional deficiencies are common due to the alteration of the anatomy and physiology of the gastrointestinal tract. These include the malabsorption of macronutrients, vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and drugs. In this report, we present the case of a female patient who underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery and subsequently developed exclusive potassium malabsorption refractory to oral replenishment.
减肥手术是治疗肥胖症最有效的长期解决方案之一,因为它能持续减轻体重并降低与肥胖相关的合并症。然而,由于胃肠道解剖结构和生理功能的改变,营养缺乏很常见。这些包括宏量营养素、维生素、矿物质、微量元素和药物的吸收不良。在本报告中,我们介绍了一名女性患者的病例,该患者接受了Roux-en-Y胃旁路手术后,随后出现了单纯性钾吸收不良,口服补充无效。
