Bariatric Surgery for Monogenic Non-syndromic and Syndromic Obesity Disorders

Abstract: Purpose of Review The global prevalence of obesity has increased rapidly over the last decades, posing a severe threat to human health. Currently, bariatric surgery is the most effective therapy for patients with morbid obesity. It is unknown whether this treatment is also suitable for patients with obesity due to a confirmed genetic defect (genetic obesity disorders). Therefore, this review aims to elucidate the role of bariatric surgery in the treatment of genetic obesity. Recent … Show more

“…A study investigating the effect of a lifestyle intervention performed in children with pathogenic MC4R variants, confirmed our clinical experience that little or only short‐term effects of lifestyle treatment is seen in patients with genetic obesity disorders 9 . Moreover, bariatric surgery may be less successful in certain types of genetic obesity 3,10 . Therefore, there is a need for additional pharmacotherapy targeting the increased weight, as well as the hyperphagia.…”

“…Currently, the evidence for the efficacy of bariatric surgery is limited in patients with LEPR deficiency and other monogenic obesity disorders. Therefore, bariatric surgeries should only be conducted in patients with monogenic obesity after a critical risk-benefit analysis and after the exhaustion of the existing non-invasive, conservative, and pharmacological treatment options [19,20]. In order to avoid unsatisfactory bariatric therapies, genetic testing should be performed in patients with hints for monogenic obesity to exclude monogenic causes for obesity preoperatively.…”

“…Die bariatrische Chirurgie ist eine sehr wirksame Methode zur Gewichtsreduktion bei Patient*innen mit polygener Adipositas [62]. Ihre Effektivität bei Patient*innen mit angeborener Adipositas wurde bisher hauptsächlich in Fallberichten/-serien untersucht [63].…”

“…Die meisten Daten zu monogener Adipositas und bariatrischer Chirurgie gibt es zu MC4R-Mutationsträger*innen, bei welchen der Roux-en-Y-Magenbypass (RYGB) ähnliche Ergebnisse wie bei polygener Adipositas zu haben scheint [64][65][66][67][68], während die Sleeve-Gastrektomie (SG) weniger wirksam ist [68]. Die Ergebnisse des Magenbands sind widersprüchlich [63]. Eine gerade publizierte Fallserie berichtet jedoch von deutlicher Gewichtswiederzunahme im Bezüglich der bariatrischen Chirurgie bei Patient*innen mit syndromischer Adipositas gibt es keinen internationalen Konsensus, da die Daten dazu spärlich sind [63] Open Access.…”
