Background: To assess the efficacy of the Swedish adjustable gastric band in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), and the metabolic syndrome (MS) in the morbidly obese.Methods: We identified all patients with T2DM, IGT, or the MS at surgery from our database of 905 consecutive patients who had undergone placement of the Swedish adjustable gastric band between January 2001 and April 2007. The patients were followed up by our multidisciplinary team, and their T2DM was managed by their treating primary care physician and/or endocrinologist.Results: A total of 682 patients had >6 months of follow-up. Of these, 78 patients had T2DM, 64 had IGT, and 100 had the MS. At a median follow-up of 12.5 months, patients with T2DM had a mean +/- SD excess weight loss of 38% +/- 15%. This was associated with hemoglobin A1c and fasting blood sugar levels decreasing from 8.0% +/- 1.7% to 6.1% +/- 1.0% (P
