Bariatric surgery (BS) reduce, after 6 months,
epicardial fat deposition but doesn't induce any change
in myocardial triglyceride content. The aim of this
study was to investigate the impact of BS on pancreatic
fat content, to determine whether we can reduce
myocardial triglyceride content two years after BS and
whether decreased level of triglyceride content 6 months
after BS could be maintained 2 years later. For that
purpose, we used 1H-MRS. Our study provides compelling
evidences that pancreatic fat increase with type 2
diabetes and could be decreased with BS. Finally, we
show that this decrease is maintained overtime.
