Department of obestetrics and gynaecology
University hospitals KU Leuven, Belgium
2. Overview
• Maternal obesity: management options
• Bariatric surgery
– Indications & procedures
– Effects on fertility
– Effects on pregnancy outcomes
– Effects on later life
• Clinical recommendations
• Research gaps

4. Treatment of obesity during pregnancy
Physical
activity1
Diet²
MedicationObesity • No registerd safe
products
• Metformin?
• Poor diet, especially in the obese
• Intervention studies show benifit
• Motivation and psychological factors
important
• Reduced in pregnancy
• Some PA contra-indicated
• Intervention studies show some benefit

6. Classification of BS procedures
Le Roux et al. Int J obesitas 2009
Procedure type Restrictive procedures Malabsorptive procedures Mixed procedures
Operation examples Laparoscopic adjustable
gastric banding (LAGB)
Bilio-pancreatic diversion
(BPD)
Roux –en Y- gastric bypass
(RYGB)
Sleeve gastrectomy Bilio-pancreatic diversion with
duodenal switch (BPD-DS)
Vertical banded gastroplasty Jejuno-ileal bypass
Mechanism of weight loss Reduced food intake
• Reduced gastric capacity
• Early satiety
Reduced nutritient absorption
• Small intestine bypassed
Reduced intake and uptake
Schematic examples LAGB BPD-DS RYGB
7. Mechanism of weight loss after BS
• Complex
• Reduced appetite: changes in gut hormons
– Ghrelin, PYY, GLP-1
• Effects on the reward system of the brain
– Changes in food preferences
– Neural pathways: Arcuate nucleus, Dopamine
Raghavendra et al, Obes Reviews 2012
8. Bariatric surgery
Indications
• National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Expert Panel on the identification, evaluation, and
treatment of obesity for adults
– bariatric surgery be an option for carefully selected patients with clinically severe
obesity (BMI >40 or >35 with comorbid conditions) when less invasive methods of
weight loss have failed and the patient is at high risk for obesity-associated morbidity
and mortality.
• The American Gastroenterological Association (AGA) medical position statement on obesity
– most effective approach for achieving long-term weight loss.
– recommends surgery for patients with a BMI >40, or those with BMI >35 and 1 or more
severe obesity-related medical complication (eg, hypertension, heart failure, or sleep
apnea) if they have been unable to achieve or maintain weight loss with conventional
therapy, have acceptable operative risks, and are able to comply with long-term
treatment and follow-up.
• American College of Preventive Medicine
– policy statement on weight management counseling
– recomments limiting surgical therapy for obesity to severely obese patients, defined as
BMI >40.
Pentin et al. 2005
9. Bariatric surgery Indications
• Country-specific different reimbursement criteria
• Most often used
– Morbidly obese BMI > 40 kg/m²
– BMI > 35 kg/m² with co-morbidities
– Lifestyle interventions not succesfull
– Operative risk acceptable
• Commercial circuit
13. Bariatric surgery
• USA 125.000 procedures per year
• About 85 % → women of reproductive age1
• An increasing number of
adolescents, predominantly female²-³
1Samuel at al. 2006; ²Schilling et al. 2008; 3Pallati et al. 2012
16. Long term consequences of bariatric surgery
The SOS-study
• Swedish Obese Subject-study
• Non-randomized, prospective controlled study 1987-2001
• Study population: Obese Men and Women
– Bariatric Surgery group (N=2 010)
– Conventional treatment group (N= 2 037)
• End points:
– Primary: overall mortality
– Secondary: myocardial infarction, stroke, cancer, self-reported
sleep apnea, hypertension, dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia
20. SOS-study
• Besides weight loss → improvement of co-
morbidities (independently of the type of
surgery)
– Cardiovascular events
– Recover from diabetes
– Hypertension
– Dyslipidemia
– Obstructive sleep apnea
– hyperuricemia
Sjöström et al. N Engl J Med 2007
21. Cost-utility of BS for morbid obesity in Finland
Mäklin et al. BJS 2011
33.870 vs. 50.495 Euro
22. Bariatric surgery
complications
• RYGB
– Operative mortalities: 0.5 %1
– Long-term: dumping, stomal stenosis, marginal
ulcers, staple line disruption, internal hernias²
– Nutritional deficiencies: more common³
• Vit B12, B1, C, folate, A, D and K
• Calcium, iron, selenium, zinc and copper
1Buchwald. 2005; ²Woodard. 2004; ³Shankar et al. Nutrition 2010; Stocker. Endocrinol Metab Clin North Am 2003
23. More recently:
Increased prevalence after bariatric surgery of:
• Substance abuse
• Psychiatric disorders
• Suicide deaths
Suicide rate of 4.1/10,000 person-years (P = 0.03).
Therefore, there is a great need to identify persons at risk and
post-operative psychological monitoring is recommended.
Peterhänsel et al, Obes Rev 2013, King et al, JAMA 2012; Raghavendra et al, 2012
25. Effects on fertility
• In general, weight loss reverses the adverse
effects of obesityand adiposity on fertility
• 50% anovulatory rate of women undergoing BS
up to 71 % regained cyclicity of menstrual blood loss1
• Most cohort studies or case control series →
improvement in spontaneous pregnancy rates
after BS1
Teitelman et al. 2006

• 35 weeks: abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting,
diarrhea
• S/C and exploration
• Maternal mortality 2 days post-caesarean
• COD: Small bowel necrosis due to internal
herniation with massive septic shock
Maternal mortality in Denmark
46. Surgical complications:
recommendations for care of women with history of RYGB
• Increase awareness of patients and staff
• Abdominal complaints should be considered SBO
unless proven otherwise.
• Usually surgical management required
• Inspect entire small bowel in case of surgery or C-
section for abdominal complaints
• CT with contrast is preferred imaging method

62. Recommendations for clinical care
• Preconception
• Pregnancy
– Early
– Late
• Postpartum period
Devlieger and Guelinckx, 2012
63. Preconception
• Delay pregnancy until after period of rapid weight loss
(1 year minimum)
• Provide effective contraception
• Involve lifestyle coach
• Evaluate nutritional state, correct where necessary
• Start folic acid (4mg)
• Advice rapid pregnancy test if sec amenorrhea
Devlieger and Guelinckx 2012
64. Clinical recommendations
First trimester
• Involve lifestyle coach
• Evaluate nutritional state, correct where
necessary
• Continue folic acid (4mg if obese) untill 12 weeks
• Adjustable balloon: not systematically open, open
if vomiting regularly (DD morning sickness) →
active band management
Devlieger and Guelinckx 2012
