A nationwide safety analysis of bariatric surgery in nonseverely obese patients with type 2 diabetes

Bariatric surgery, which is a 2-hour procedure requiring a 2-day hospital stay, is a relatively well-tolerated option in patients with T2D and mild obesity. RYGB and SG had comparable early postoperative morbidity. Smoking can be considered as a modifiable risk factor for early complications after bariatric surgery in patients with T2D and lower body mass index.
