Un tratamiento correcto de la obesidad ha de comporta un programa de modificación de hábitos independientemente de la técnica que se indique, en especial si es mínimamente invasiva como el Balón Intragástrico (BIG). Se cifra la adherencia terapéutica de los pacientes obesos en menos del 50% a medio largo y plazo respecto a las medidas higiénico-dietéticas aconsejadas. Dado que los resultados obtenidos mediante la técnica de Balón Intragástrico han de verse influidos por la adherencia al programa de modificación de hábitos, revisamos las series publicadas en atención al programa propuesto junto al BIG y a su cumplimiento. Se observa que las series publicadas hasta la fecha ofrecen pocos detalles sobre los Programas Terapéuticos utilizados así como la adherencia de los pacientes a los mismos, y menos aún respecto al Plan de Seguimiento y la fidelidad del paciente. Concluimos la conveniencia de consensuar una estrategia de seguimiento, al menos durante los 6 meses que permanece colocado el BIG. A correct treatment of obesity needs a program of habits modification regardless of the selected technique, especially if it is minimally invasive as the intragastric balloon (BIG). The adherence of the obese patients with regard to recommended drugs measures to medium- and long-term is less than 50%. Given that the results obtained using the technique of gastric balloon must be seen influenced by adherence to the modification of habits program and its fulfillment, we reviewed series published in attention to the program proposed with the BIG. The series published to date provide few details about the used Therapeutic Programs as well as the adherence of patients to them, and even less concerning the Monitoring Plan and the loyalty of the patient can be seen. We conclude the convenience to agree on a follow-up strategy, at least the 6 months during which the BIG remain in the stomach.

Introducción: La obesidad es una enfermedad crónica para la que se investigan hoy múltiples caminos terapéuticos. Uno de ellos es el conjunto de técnicas poco agresivas que se han sumado al balón intragástrico. Objetivo: Revisar las técnicas mínimamente invasivas descritas en los últimos años para el tratamiento de la obesidad. Material y método: Se procede a revisar toda la bibliografía asequible a través de los buscadores habituales, además de la información obtenida de las casas comerciales. Se clasifican en restrictivas y malabsortivas, y las primeras en restricción mecánica o funcional. Resultado: Entre las técnicas emergentes clasificadas como restrictivas mecánicas incluimos el balón intragástrico ajustable, la prótesis intragástrica, la gastroplastia vertical endoluminal y la gastroplastia transoral. Para obtener una restricción funcional, tenemos el marcapaso gástrico y la toxina botulínica. Y por último, se describe el by-pass duodenoyeyunal endoluminal que sería una técnica malabsortiva. Discusión: Con menos de 10 años de existencia, parece que las técnicas descritas compensan su menor eficacia frente a las técnicas quirúrgicas, con la ausencia de modificaciones sustanciales en la anatomía del tubo digestivo. Ninguna de estas técnicas está exenta de riesgos y complicaciones. Conclusión: Tal como ya manifestó la SAGES en 2009, estas técnicas parecen tener un futuro prometedor, pero la escasez de datos actuales no nos permiten aún confirmar su utilidad en el tratamiento de la obesidad. Introduction: Obesity is a chronic disease for which several modalities of treatment are investigated today. One of them is the set of minimally aggressive techniques that have been added to the intragastric balloon. Objective: To review the minimally invasive techniques described in the last years for the treatment of obesity. Material and method: It consisted in reviewing the bibliography through the habitual finders, in addition to the obtained data of the companies. They are classified in restrictive and malabsortive, and the restrictive are divides in mechanical or functional restriction. Result: Between mechanical restrictive the classified as we included in the restrictive emergent techniques the adjustable intragastric balloon, the intragastric prosthesis, the vertical endoluminal gastroplasty and the transoral gastroplasty. In order to obtain a functional restriction, we have the gastric pacemaker and the botulinic toxin. And finally, the endoluminal duodenojejunal bypass is described as a malabsortive technique. Discussion: With less than 10 years of existence, it seems that the described techniques compensate their smaller effectiveness compared to the surgical techniques, with the absence of substantial modifications in the anatomy of the alimentary tract. None of these techniques is free of risks and complications.

Introducción: El Balón Intragástrico (BIG) es una técnica invasiva, no quirúrgica, de carácter temporal, para el tratamiento de la obesidad, cuyos resultados dependen en gran medida de la colaboración del paciente. Objetivo: El objetivo es adaptar el Consentimiento Informado propio de la cirugía bariátrica, a un método que reviste las características especiales descritas. Material y método: Se utiliza el Consentimiento Informado propuesto por la ASAC para cirugía bariátrica, así como 8 sentencias relacionadas con el BIG tal como se hallan en la base de datos WESTLAW ES. Resultado: La revisión de las sentencias define el tratamiento mediante BIB como tratamiento con intención curativa y no satisfactiva, con obligación de medios aunque no de resultados, por parte del médico tratante. Se han de respetar además las obligaciones de una información correcta y completa -incluyendo las pautas dietéticas a seguir-, así como de las alternativas terapéuticas posibles, y por fin, de una constancia del proceso por escrito. Conclusiones: El Consentimiento Informado es un importante documento médico-legal cuyo contenido debe tener en cuenta la jurisprudencia recientemente aparecida en el campo de las técnicas mínimamente invasivas para el tratamiento de la obesidad. Introduction: Intra-gastric balloon (IGB) is an invasive, temporary, non-surgical technique for the treatment of obesity. Its outcomes mainly depend on the patient's collaboration. Objective: The aim was to adapt the informed consent used for bariatric surgery to a method that has especial characteristics. Materials and methods: We used the informed consent proposed by ASAC for bariatric surgery and 8 statements related to IGB included in the WESTLAW ES database. Results: The review of the statements defines the IGB treatment as a curative-intended and non-satisfactive therapy with an obligation of the means used, but not the outcomes, by the treating physician. Moreover, the obligations of providing a correct and complete information -which includes the dietary regime- should be observed, as well as the possible therapeutic alternatives and finally, the proceeding used should be in written. Conclusions: The informed consent is a medico-legal document which content should consider the latest jurisprudence on the minimally invasive techniques for the treatment of obesity.

Background: The intragastric balloon is widely used for weight reduction in obese patients, but results are variable. We describe our results enhancing the importance of a Multidisciplinary Team (MT) taking part in the treatment. Methods: A retrospective review was done concerning a total of 119 balloons , placed in 116 patients, under endoscopic control and conscious sedation, from May 2001 until August 2006. 49 patients were prepared and recommended to be followed by a MT in a physical unit, at least every 15 days during 6 months. 67 were indicated and followed by other colleagues, without MT. Removal was performed 6 months later. Results: Concerning our 49 patients, mean age was 38, 1 years, 31 female and 18 males, with BMI ranged between 32 and 63, average of 42. The average decrease of weight excess was 31, 85% (-4, 45-80, 4%), and the BMI diminished 5,3 points (from 13,6 to gain of 0,9). The treatment failed in 34,6 % of our patients -including 4 patients lost of follow-up (8, 16%)-, compared with 53, 8% of patients without structured MT for selection and follow-up. Physical exercise enhanced markedly the results with 45, 8% of excess of weight loss in women and 39, 7% in males, compared with 14, 6 and 15, 6% in patients who didn't follow the program. The weight loss was mostly fat mass, 89,9% in men and 75,6% in women.- The results maintenance was obtained in 40% of patients one year later. There were no major complications; one balloon had to be removed at 3 weeks because of intolerance, another at 5 months because of gastroesophageal reflux. Conclusions: BIB is an effective help to achieve a short term weight loss in obese patients; nevertheless, good and long lasting results will depend on the modification of life style obtained by a multidisciplinary approach. Antecedentes: el balón intragástrico se usa ampliamente para la reducción de peso de pacientes obesos pero sus resultados son variables. Describimos nuestros resultados resaltando la importancia de la implicación del equipo multidisciplinar (EM) en el tratamiento. Métodos: Se realiza una revisión retrospectiva correspondiente a 119 balones colocados a 116 pacientes bajo control endoscópico y sedación consciente desde mayo de 2001 a agosto de 2006. Se preparó a 49 pacientes a los que se recomendó seguimiento por un EM en una unidad física, al menos cada 15 días durante 6 meses. Se indicó a 67, que fueron seguidos por otros colegas, sin un EM. Se realizó la retirada 6 meses después. Resultados: Con respecto a nuestros 49 pacientes, la edad media fue de 38,1 años, hubo 31 mujeres y 18 hombres, con un IMC en el rango de 32-63, media de 42. El descenso medio de exceso de peso fue de 31,85% (-4,45- 80,4%), y el IMC disminuyó en 5,3 puntos (desde 13,6 a una ganancia de 0,9). El tratamiento fracasó en el 34,6% de nuestros pacientes -incluyendo 4 pacientes (8,16%) en quienes se perdió el seguimiento- en comparación con el 53,8% de pacientes sin unEMestructurado para la selección y el seguimiento. El ejercicio físico aumentó significativamente los resultados con un 45,8% de exceso de pérdida de peso en las mujeres y un 39,7% en los hombres, en comparación con el 14,6 y 15,6% en los pacientes que no siguieron el programa. La pérdida de peso fue sobre todo de masa grasa, 89,9% en los hombres y 75,6% en las mujeres. Los resultados se mantuvieron en el 40% de los pacientes un año después. No hubo complicaciones importantes; se tuvo que retirar un balón a las 3 semanas por intolerancia, y otro a los 5 meses por reflujo gastroesofágicoo. Conclusiones: El BIG es una ayuda eficaz para conseguir una pérdida de peso en el corto plazo en pacientes obesos; sin embargo, los resultados buenos y duraderos dependerán de la modificación del estilo de vida obtenida mediante un abordaje multidisciplinar.

Junto al notable aumento de la prevalencia de la obesidad en los países desarrollados, aparece un incremento paralelo de las enfermedades crónicas asociadas. La morbilidad secundaria al sobrepeso y la obesidad incluye, además de diabetes tipo 2, dislipemia, hipertensión, enfermedad coronaria, enfermedad cerebro vascular, colelitiasis, osteoartritis, insuficiencia cardiaca, síndrome de apnea del sueño, alteraciones menstruales, esterilidad y alteraciones psicológicas, una mayor susceptibilidad a padecer algunos tipos de cáncer e infecciones, hay mayor riesgo de bacteriemia y una prolongación del tiempo de cicatrización de las heridas tras intervenciones quirúrgicas. Todo ello indica que la obesidad ejerce efectos negativos sobre los componentes del sistema inmune y su función. En esta revisión se describen las alteraciones inmunitarias asociadas con la obesidad, y su posible relación causal. Los cambios inmunológicos que se producen en la obesidad afectan tanto a la inmunidad humoral, sobre todo a la secreción de anticuerpos, como a la inmunidad celular. En la actualidad se sabe que el tejido adiposo, además de constituir un almacén de reservas energéticas en forma de triglicéridos, tiene importantes funciones como órgano endocrino y es productor de diversas hormonas y otras moléculas de señalización. La respuesta inmune puede verse profundamente afectada por la obesidad, jugando la leptina un importante papel. A lo largo del artículo se describen las propiedades de la leptina, las alteraciones de hipo e hiperleptinemia en diversas circunstancias y sus variaciones tras el tratamiento, médico o quirúrgico de la obesidad. With an increased prevalence of obesity in developed countries, associated chronic diseases rise in a parallel way. Morbidity secondary to overweight and obesity include type 2 diabetes, dislipemia, hypertension, heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, cholelithiasis, osteoarthritis, heart insufficiency, sleep apnoea, menstrual changes, sterility and psychological alterations. There is also a greater susceptibility to suffer some types of cancer, infections, greater risk of bacteremia and a prolonged time of wound healing after surgical operations. All these factors indicate that obesity exerts negative effects upon the immune system. Immune changes found in obesity and their possible interrelations are described in this article. Changes produced during obesity affect both humoral and cellular immunity. It is known that adipose tissue, together with its role as energy reserve in form of triglycerides, has important endocrine functions, producing several hormones and other signal molecules. Immune response can be deeply affected by obesity, playing leptin an important role. Properties of leptin, alterations of leptin levels in different situations and its changes with different medical and surgical therapies for obesity are described in this article.

Obesity is considered a chronic and epidemic illness, hence difficult to treat. As conservative treatment has a high rate of failure, and considering morbimortality and sequels of surgery, less invasive techniques appeared to contribute to the treatment of this illness. The most implanted technique nowadays is the Intragastric Balloon, considered more efficient as conservative treatments and with less risks than surgery, but having today a lack of consensus on indications and little information on its limitations, while its apparition in medias promote an important expansion in the 4 last years. In this publication, we do a critical revision, and describe limitations of this treatment, based on the evidence given by literature. We conclude this revision with some recommendations concerning the technique and indications, material and human requiring, need of a Multidisciplinary Team, as well as an adequate control and following.

- Abstract
Background & Aims: Our objective in this cross-sectional, case-control study was to gain insight into celiac osteopathy by examining a well-defined cohort of patients with a wide clinical spectrum of the disease. Methods: We studied 148 unselected celiac patients and 296 (1:2) age- and sex-matched controls diagnosed with functional gastrointestinal disorders. Based on the clinical history, 53% were classically symptomatic, 36% had subclinical celiac disease, and 11% were silent, detected by screening. The fracture information was obtained through an in-person interview using a pre-designed questionnaire. Results: Classically symptomatic patients had an increased number of fractures in the peripheral skeleton (47%) compared with age- and sex-matched controls (15%; odds ratio, 5.2; 95% confidence interval, 2.8-9.8). However, fractures in subclinical/silent celiac cases (20%) were no different from those in controls (14%; odds ratio, 1.7, 0.7-4.4). Compared with the subclinical/silent group, a significantly greater prevalence of fractures was detected in classically symptomatic patients (odds ratio, 3.6, 1.7-7.5). Compared with controls, celiac disease patients had significantly more fractures produced by mild trauma (P < 0.01), but there were no differences in the severity of trauma events that induced fractures. Mean bone density femoral neck z score was higher for subclinical/silent cases compared with classically symptomatic patients (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Celiac patients show a very wide variation in fracture risk, with increased risk in classically symptomatic patients. Diagnostic and therapeutic strategies to prevent bone loss and fracture should be preferentially used in the subgroup of patients with classic clinical disease.

The average decrease of weight excess was 31, 85% (-4, 45-80, 4%), and the BMI diminished 5,3 points (from 13,6 to gain of 0,9). The treatment failed in 34,6 % of our patients -including 4 patients lost of follow-up (8, 16%)-, compared with 53, 8% of patients without structured MT for selection and follow-up. Physical exercise enhanced markedly the results with 45, 8% of excess of weight loss in women and 39, 7% in males, compared with 14, 6 and 15, 6% in patients who didn't follow the program. The weight loss was mostly fat mass, 89,9% in men and 75,6% in women.- The results maintenance was obtained in 40% of patients one year later. There were no major complications; one balloon had to be removed at 3 weeks because of intolerance, another at 5 months because of gastroesophageal reflux. Conclusions: BIB is an effective help to achieve a short term weight loss in obese patients; nevertheless, good and long lasting results will depend on the modification of life style obtained by a multidisciplinary approach.

- Abstract
Retractile mesenteritis is a rare inflammatory mesenteric disorder that involves the intestine secondarily. The natural history of this process is diverse, but most patients require some empiric therapeutic measures. Up to now, pharmacological therapy has included corticosteroids, colchicine, and immunosuppressive drugs. Although these drugs are successful in most patients, some have been refractory to these therapies and, in others, the beneficial effects were counterbalanced by adverse reactions. Many patients require surgery, but most have poor results. This report describes a 42-year-old man with histologically proven retractile mesenteritis refractory to surgical intervention who had a good response to oral progesterone (10 mg/day for 6 months) with complete disappearance of tumor mass and clinical symptoms. No adverse effects were detected. Current knowledge about the mechanism by which progesterone affects fibrogenesis is scanty. It seems likely that progesterone down-regulates proliferation and metabolism of fibroblasts and fibrogenesis. GASTROENTEROLOGY 1998;114:1313-1317

- Abstract
Introduction: Obesity is a chronic disease for which several modalities of treatment are investigated today. One of them is the set of minimally aggressive techniques that have been added to the intragastric balloon., Objective: To review the minimally invasive techniques described in the last years for the treatment of obesity., Material and Method: It consisted in reviewing the bibliography through the habitual finders, in addition to the obtained data of the companies. They are classified in restrictive and malabsortive, and the restrictive are divides in mechanical or functional restriction., Result: Between mechanical restrictive the classified as we included in the restrictive emergent techniques the adjustable intragastric balloon, the intragastric prosthesis, the vertical endoluminal gastroplasty and the transoral gastroplasty. In order to obtain a functional restriction, we have the gastric pacemaker and the botulinic toxin. And finally, the endoluminal duodenojejunal bypass is described as a malabsortive technique., Discussion: With less than 10 years of existence, it seems that the described techniques compensate their smaller effectiveness compared to the surgical techniques, with the absence of substantial modifications in the anatomy of the alimentary tract. None of these techniques is free of risks and complications.

- Abstract
Introduction: Intra-gastric balloon (IGB) is an invasive, temporary, non-surgical technique for the treatment of obesity. Its outcomes mainly depend on the patient's collaboration., Objective: The aim was to adapt the informed consent used for bariatric surgery to a method that has especial characteristics., Materials and Methods: We used the informed consent proposed by ASAC for bariatric surgery and 8 statements related to IGB included in the WESTLAW ES database., Results: The review of the statements defines the IGB treatment as a curative-intended and non-satisfactive therapy with an obligation of the means used, but not the outcomes, by the treating physician. Moreover, the obligations of providing a correct and complete information -which includes the dietary regime- should be observed, as well as the possible therapeutic alternatives and finally, the proceeding used should be in written., Conclusions: The informed consent is a medico-legal document which content should consider the latest jurisprudence on the minimally invasive techniques for the treatment of obesity.

- Abstract
Obesity is considered a chronic and epidemic illness, hece difficult to treat. As conservative treatment has a high rate of failure, and considering morbimortality and sequels of surgery, less invasive techniques appeared to contribute to the treatment of this illness. The most implanted technique nowadays is the Intragastric Balloon, considered more efficient as conservative treatments and with less risks tan surgery, but having today a lack of consensus on indications and few information on his limitations, while its apparition in medias promote an important expansion in the 4 last years. In this publication, we do a critical revision, and describe limitations of this treatment, based on the evidences given by literature. We conclude this revision with some recommendations concerning the technique and indications, material and human requiring, need of a Multidisciplinary Team, as well as an adequate control and following.

- Abstract
With an increased prevalence of obesity in developed countries, associated chronic diseases rise in a parallel way. Morbidity secondary to overweight and obesity include type 2 diabetes, dislipemia, hypertension, heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, cholelithiasis, osteoarthritis, heart insufficiency, sleep apnoea, menstrual changes, sterility and psychological alterations. There is also a greater susceptibility to suffer some types of cancer, infections, greater risk of bacteremia and a prolonged time of wound healing after surgical operations. All these factors indicate that obesity exerts negative effects upon the immune system. Immune changes found in obesity and their possible interrelations are described in this article. Changes produced during obesity affect both humoral and cellular immunity. It is known that adipose tissue, together with its role as energy reserve in form of triglycerides, has important endocrine functions, producing several hormones and other signal molecules. Immune response can be deeply affected by obesity, playing leptin an important role. Properties of leptin, alterations of leptin levels in different situations and its changes with different medical and surgical therapies for obesity are described in this article.

- Abstract
Proposal: Tumoural disease leads to multifactorial cancerous cachexia. There are still few data available on the onset of this syndrome in operable patients, despite the repercussions on prognosis and the indication of nutritional support., Goal: In this prospective study, we are considering the assessment of nutritional status in the light of the Chang protocol in with gastrointestinal tumours patients, as well as the possible differences depending on the location of the tumour, its progress, and the onset of septic complications. With this approach, we attempt to specify the indication of postoperative nutritional support., Materials and Method: The nutritional assessment protocol existing in the Department was reviewed as applied to 105 patients affected by oesophageal, gastric, pancreatic and colo-rectal cancer. This protocol included the ideal weight percentage (%IW), tricipital fold (TSF), arm muscle circumference (AMC), total albumin and lymphocytes (Chang protocol), as well as urea nitrogen. The database used was created in File Maker Pro running on a Macintosh computer and supported by the StatView programme for the statistical analysis of the results., Results: There were 61 colo-rectal, 18 gastric, 17 oesophageal and 9 pancreatic carcinomas. There was some degree of malnutrition in 52.4% of patients but it was not severe in any case. An outstanding result is the percentage of ideal weight in excess of 100% on average in all of the groups, with little variation in the arm muscle circumference, as is the lower tricipital fold in the oesophageal and pancreatic cases. Albumin was significantly lower in gastric carcinoma cases and lymphocytes showed a correlation with the progress of the tumour and also with the onset of septic complications. The excretion of urea nitrogen did not reveal significant differences. In stages I and II, the patients were normally nourished or with marasmus, so that the only malnutrition found was of the kwashiorkor type and combined with stages III and IV., Conclusions: There is 52.4% of malnutrition in our surgically resectable digestive oncology patients using the Chang protocol, not susceptible of preoperative renourishment. This is found irregularly depending on the location and stage of the tumour. The total lymphocytes prior to surgery represented an independent variable which correlated with septic complications.
