Bariatric surgery in a patient with cystinuria
We recently encountered concern about the safety of bariatric surgery for a patient with cystinuria. Bariatric surgery procedures include those that cause malabsorption, like the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass procedure, and restrictive operations, such as the sleeve gastrectomy. These procedures produce...

description | We recently encountered concern about the safety of bariatric surgery for a patient with cystinuria. Bariatric surgery procedures include those that cause malabsorption, like the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass procedure, and restrictive operations, such as the sleeve gastrectomy. These procedures produce beneficial effects on health and life expectancy, though whether kidney stones are prevented, as well as promoted, is not established. Although the importance of body weight to metabolic stone activity in patients with cystinuria is not established, the patient’s physicians were concerned about whether any bariatric surgery procedure would affect her ability to drink sufficient quantities of water in order to reduce stone activity. Here we report the experience of a genetically defined patient with cystinuria who underwent a gastric sleeve procedure. In the months after the procedure, she lost 45 kg, though with time she regained 23 kg of that loss. She was able to maintain a urine volume of 4.0 L per day and has had no stone recurrence. |
