It has been more than twenty years since the observation that type 2 diabetes (T2DM) was found to resolve as a corollary of bariatric surgery, which was done essentially for the management of morbid obesity. It has also been shown that diabetes and its related complications reduce significantly after gastric bypass surgery and that the glycemic control in these patients is long lasting [1]. Today such surgeries are even being conducted in patients with a lower BMI (27.5 to 32.4) in Asian populations who have poor glycaemic control [2].
