1. Prevalence of anemia and related
deficiencies in the first year
following laparoscopic gastric bypass
for morbid obesity

Janssen, I. M. C., & Berends, F. J. (2012).

3. Background
• Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
(LRBGY) is most common bariatric surgery
• Anemia associated with iron, folic acid, and
vitamin B12 deficiencies after surgery are
common
• Malabsorption and insufficient intake
4. Purpose
• Limited studies addressing nutrient
deficiencies and anemia
• Prospective study to investigate the
prevalence of anemia and deficiencies in
iron, folate, and vitamin B12 in the first year
after laparoscopic gastric bypass (LRYGB) in
our patients.
5. Subjects
• January 2005 – October 2009
• 416 pts LRYGB (Rijnstate Hospital, The
Netherlands)
• N= 377 ( 102: M, 275: F)
• Average age: 43.4 (18-63)
• Average wt (kg): 137.5 ± 22.6
• Average BMI 46.8 ± 6.3
6. Inclusion/Exclusion criteria
• Screened by multidisciplinary team
• Met NIH Consensus Development Conference
Panel for bariatric surgery
• Unable to attend standard F/U protocol
• Pt with laboratory evaluations that surpassed
the 6 & 12 month evaluation by 2-3 months
respectively
7. Methods
• 30 cc proximal gastric pouch
• Connect 100-150 cm roux-en-y limb to
jejunum 40 cm from the ligament of Treitz
• 2005-2007 BMI > 40 received 100 cm
limb, BMI of >50 (or failing gastric band)
received 150 cm limb
• 2007 all pt received 150 cm

Pantothenic acid
Folic Acid
9. Methods
• F/U at 1,3,6 & 12 months post-op
• Complete blood count, mean cell volume
(MCV) and kidney function pre-op
• After 6 & 12 months laboratory evaluations
repeated, plus plasma levels of iron, total iron
binding capacity (TIBC), serum folate levels
and serum B12
10. Post-op Protocol
• Standard multivitamin 3 x daily
• 7 mg iron
• 100 μg of folic acid
• 0.5 μg B12
• Compliance was assessed
11. Limits
• Anemia: Hemoglobin (Hb) in men < 8.4
mmol/L & Hb women <7.4 mmol/L
• MCV 80-100 fL normal
• Serum iron < 9.0 μmol/L = Deficient
• TIBC > 80%
• Serum folate < 9.0 nmol/L = Deficient
12. Results: Anemia
• Pre-op 27 pt had anemia
• After 12 months 66 pt developed anemia: 19
microcytic
• Total prevalence of anemia including pre-op is
25%
• 93 developed anemia within first year
13. Results: Iron deficiency
• 66% of pt
• 33% after one year
• 61% with anemia de novo
• 38% vs. 17% (Female vs. Male)
15. Results: Vitamin B12
• 50% of pt
• 40% of pt with anemia de novo
• 2/3 pt developed macrocytic red blood cells
with B12 deficiency
• 42 % vs. 21 % (female vs. male)
16. Results
• 239/377 (63%) were diagnosed with at least
one of either iron, folic acid, or B12 deficiency
• Male 45% risk of being diagnosed with
iron, folic acid, or B12 deficiency vs. 68% of
females
• AGB prior to RYGB a 24% vs. 39% risk in B12
deficiencies

18. Risk Factors
• Decreased absorption surface = absorption
capacity
• ph due to gastric acid (proton pump
inhibitors and calcium, other meds)
• Intolerance for red meat and milk
• Inadequate intake preoperatively
• Menstruation
• inflammatory response
19. Application
• Monitor anemia and deficiency in pt following
gastric bypass
• Supplementation to avoid deficiency and
anemia post-op needs to be determined
• At risk pts would benefit from a higher
supplementation level
