The role of weight loss in the control of Type 2 diabetes has been known for some time The role of surgery in the management of diabetes was first described in 1955 A systematic review by Buchwald [] in 2004 demonstrated 26 Lloyd Square, 16 Niall Close, Edgbaston, an improvement in diabetes which was dependent on the Birmingham B15 3LX, UKe-mail: singhal_rishi@rediffmail.com type of bariatric surgery performed, but in this review, studies reporting improvement in diabetes were limited in necessary and consequently seldom used for any of the sample size. Studies in the literature reporting the effect of laparoscopic banding on diabetes are scant and limited to All the patients received postoperative low-molecular- weight heparins and graduated compression stockingsduring the surgery. Immediate postoperative mobilizationand discharge on the same day or day following surgery was encouraged.
