The role of bariatric surgery in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Medical treatments for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and class II and above obesity (body mass index greater than 35 kg/m2) are currently limited to treatment of diabetes and prevention of its vascular complications.
