Long-term Hypovitaminosis D and Secondary Hyperparathyroidism Outcomes of the Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: A Systematic Review

INTRODUCTION: Pre-operative Vitamin D deficiency is markedly prevalent in prospective bariatric surgery patients. While bariatric surgery leads to significant weight-loss, it can exacerbate or prolong Vitamin D deficiency. We systematically reviewed the literature to assess whether secondary hyperparathyroidism is maintained in the medium to long-term in patients following the roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

METHODS: A comprehensive literature search was conducted through Medline, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, Dare, Cochrane library, and HTA database. The search terms used were bariatric surgery, gastric bypass and hyperparathyroidism.

RESULTS: Fourteen studies were included (n=2688 subjects) in this systematic review. The average patient age was 44.8 + 8 years. All studies had mean follow-up intervals between 24 and 132 months.

Parathyroid hormone levels rose gradually over 5 year follow-up from a weighted mean pre-operative level of 5.69 + 1.2 pmol/L to 6.36 + 0.77 pmol/L, 7.59 + 0.73 pmol/L, and 8.29 + 1.41 pmol/L at 2 years, between 2-5 years, and beyond 5 years respectively. Vitamin D levels, while initially rising post-surgery from a weighted mean of 18.27 + 3.65 ng/mL to 24.66 + 2.30 ng/mL at 2 years, slowly fell to a weighted mean of 20.50 + 4.37 ng/mL and 20.76 + 3.80 ng/mL between follow-up intervals 2-5 years, and beyond 5 respectively.

CONCLUSION: It appears that hyperparathyroidism persists at 5 year follow-up after gastric bypass, despite most patients being supplemented with calcium and Vitamin D.
