Retrospective analysis reveals that dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry identifies calcium disorders and fractures in patients after bariatric surgery, indicating clinical significance.

Key Points

Osteoporosis and osteopenia are prevalent issues among patients after bariatric surgery due to calcium metabolism disorders.
Statistical analysis showed significant differences in bone mineral density between surgery types, especially lower T-scores in patients undergoing biliopancreatic diversion.
Retrospective study included 31 patients, evaluated for parathyroid hormone levels and mineral density using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.
Early detection of these disorders can optimize monitoring and intervention strategies for complications following bariatric surgery.
