Zespół porezekcyjny
Etiologia i przyczyny

Zespół porezekcyjny (dumping syndrome) to kliniczny stan charakteryzujący się przyspieszonym opróżnianiem żołądka, najczęściej po zabiegach chirurgicznych takich jak gastrektomia, bypass żołądkowy typu Roux-en-Y, wagotomia z pyloroplastyką czy ezofagektomia. Częstość występowania wynosi od 20% do nawet 50% w zależności od rodzaju operacji, z najwyższym ryzykiem po operacji Roux-en-Y (około 40-85%). Patofizjologia obejmuje szybkie przemieszczanie hiperosmolarnej treści pokarmowej do jelita cienkiego, co prowadzi do przesunięcia płynów, uwalniania hormonów inkretynowych (GLP-1, GIP) i mediatorów wazoaktywnych (serotonina, VIP), a także aktywacji autonomicznego układu nerwowego. Wczesny zespół porezekcyjny pojawia się 10-30 minut po posiłku i manifestuje się objawami hemodynamicznymi i jelitowymi, natomiast późny (1-3 godziny po posiłku) wiąże się z hipoglikemią reaktywną wywołaną hiperinsulinemią. Warto podkreślić, że cukrzyca typu 2 jest istotną niechirurgiczną przyczyną zespołu, związana z wczesnym uszkodzeniem nerwu błędnego i szybkim opróżnianiem żołądka.

Etiologia zespołu porezekcyjnego

Zespół porezekcyjny (ang. Dumping syndrome) to stan kliniczny, w którym pokarm, szczególnie bogaty w cukry proste, przemieszcza się ze zbyt dużą szybkością z żołądka do jelita cienkiego. Stan ten, określany również jako szybkie opróżnianie żołądkowe, najczęściej występuje w następstwie operacji żołądka lub przełyku.12 W zespole porezekcyjnym pokarm i soki żołądkowe przemieszczają się z żołądka do jelita cienkiego w sposób niekontrolowany i nieprawidłowo szybki.3

Przyczyny chirurgiczne

Najczęstszą przyczyną zespołu porezekcyjnego są zabiegi chirurgiczne, które modyfikują anatomię i fizjologię przewodu pokarmowego. Wśród zabiegów zwiększających ryzyko rozwoju tego zespołu wymienia się:45

  • Gastrektomię – zabieg usunięcia części lub całości żołądka
  • Chirurgię bariatryczną, w szczególności bypass żołądkowy typu Roux-en-Y
  • Pyloroplastykę – operację zastawki odźwiernikowej w dolnej części żołądka
  • Ezofagektomię – usunięcie części lub całości przełyku
  • Wagotomię – przecięcie nerwu błędnego w obszarze żołądka
  • Fundoplikację metodą Nissena – zabieg polegający na obszyciu górnej części żołądka wokół przełyku
  • Gastrojejunostomię
  • Antrektomię
  • Pylorektomię

123

Częstość występowania zespołu porezekcyjnego zależy od rodzaju i zakresu przeprowadzonego zabiegu chirurgicznego. Występuje on u około 20% pacjentów po wagotomii z pyloroplastyką, u prawie 40% pacjentów po operacji typu Roux-en-Y lub rękawowej resekcji żołądka oraz u nawet 50% pacjentów po ezofagektomii.6 Według danych z ostatnich 15 lat, chirurgia bariatryczna stała się główną przyczyną pooperacyjnego zespołu porezekcyjnego.7

Nasilenie objawów zespołu porezekcyjnego jest proporcjonalne do stopnia szybkości opróżniania żołądkowego i zależy od rodzaju przeprowadzonego zabiegu operacyjnego.89 Każda operacja, w której odźwiernik zostaje usunięty, ominięty lub zniszczony, zwiększa szybkość opróżniania żołądkowego, co stanowi kluczowy mechanizm w patogenezie zespołu porezekcyjnego.10

Przyczyny niechirurgiczne

Chociaż operacje chirurgiczne są główną przyczyną zespołu porezekcyjnego, istnieją również przypadki, w których zespół ten rozwija się bez historii interwencji chirurgicznej lub z innych oczywistych powodów.1112 Do niechirurgicznych przyczyn zespołu porezekcyjnego należą:1314

  • Cukrzyca, szczególnie typu 2
  • Zespół cyklicznych wymiotów
  • Dysfunkcja autonomiczna
  • Zewnątrzwydzielnicza niewydolność trzustki
  • Owrzodzenie dwunastnicy
  • Zespół Zollingera-Ellisona
  • Dyspepsja czynnościowa
  • Zespół wymiotów związanych z używaniem konopi

12

Jedną z istotnych przyczyn szybkiego opróżniania żołądkowego u pacjentów nieoperowanych jest cukrzyca. Przyczyną szybkiego opróżniania żołądkowego we wczesnej cukrzycy jest wczesne uszkodzenie nerwu błędnego, prawdopodobnie jego dystalnej części, związane z zwyrodnieniem Wallerowskim.15 Cukrzyca o krótszym czasie trwania jest związana z szybkim opróżnianiem żołądkowym, natomiast długotrwała cukrzyca zwykle prowadzi do gastroparezy.16

Interesującym odkryciem jest fakt, że 32% pacjentów z idiopatycznym zespołem porezekcyjnym (bez ustalonej przyczyny) doświadczyło wcześniej zapalenia żołądka i jelit. Możliwym wyjaśnieniem jest uszkodzenie receptorów dwunastnicy, w tym receptorów tłuszczowych i osmotycznych, które kontrolują opróżnianie żołądkowe, lub uszkodzenie nerwu błędnego prowadzące do zmniejszonego rozkurczu dna żołądka i akomodacji, co ułatwia szybkie opróżnianie.17

Mechanizmy patofizjologiczne zespołu porezekcyjnego

Patofizjologia zespołu porezekcyjnego jest złożona i obejmuje wiele mechanizmów, które prowadzą do szybkiego przepływu treści pokarmowej z żołądka do jelita cienkiego.18

Zaburzenia mechanizmów opróżniania żołądkowego

W warunkach fizjologicznych żołądek pełni funkcję rezerwuarową, umożliwiającą wstępne trawienie chemiczne przez kwas żołądkowy i proteazy przed przekazaniem pokarmu do antrum. W antrum silne skurcze rozdrabniają stałe składniki pokarmu. Gdy cząstki stałe są zmniejszone do 1-2 mm, mogą przechodzić przez odźwiernik. Nienaruszony odźwiernik pełni funkcję segregacyjną, zapobiegając przejściu większych cząstek do dwunastnicy.19

Opróżnianie żołądkowe jest kontrolowane przez napięcie dna żołądka, mechanizmy antro-odźwiernikowe oraz sprzężenie zwrotne z dwunastnicy. Zabiegi chirurgiczne żołądka zmieniają te mechanizmy na kilka sposobów:20

  • Resekcja żołądka może zmniejszyć rezerwuar dna żołądka, ograniczając zdolność żołądka do przyjmowania posiłku
  • Wagotomia zwiększa napięcie żołądka, ograniczając akomodację
  • Usunięcie, ominięcie lub zniszczenie odźwiernika zwiększa szybkość opróżniania żołądkowego
  • Ominięcie dwunastnicy poprzez gastrojejunostomię powoduje utratę hamującego sprzężenia zwrotnego z dwunastnicy na opróżnianie żołądkowe

1

Przyspieszone wczesne opróżnianie żołądkowe płynów jest charakterystyczną cechą i kluczowym etapem w patogenezie zespołu porezekcyjnego. Ponadto funkcja śluzówki żołądka jest zmieniona przez zabieg chirurgiczny, a wydzielanie kwasu i enzymów jest zmniejszone. Wydzielanie hormonów, które podtrzymują żołądkową fazę trawienia, jest również niekorzystnie zmienione.21

Mechanizmy wczesnego zespołu porezekcyjnego

Wczesny zespół porezekcyjny pojawia się 10-30 minut po posiłku i jest wynikiem szybkiego przemieszczania się hiperosmolarnej treści pokarmowej do jelita cienkiego.22 Główne mechanizmy obejmują:

  1. Przesunięcie płynów – Szybka dostawa hiperosmolarnego materiału do jelita powoduje przesunięcie płynów z przestrzeni wewnątrznaczyniowej do światła jelita, prowadząc do szybkiego rozciągnięcia jelita cienkiego i zwiększonej perystaltyki.2324 Ten przesunięcie płynów może prowadzić do względnej hipowolemii i hipotensji.25
  2. Uwalnianie hormonów żołądkowo-jelitowych – Szybki napływ pokarmu do jelita cienkiego powoduje nadmierne wydzielanie różnych hormonów żołądkowo-jelitowych i mediatorów wazoaktywnych, takich jak serotonina, wazopresyna jelitowa (VIP), inkretyny czy hormony modulujące poziom glukozy.2627 Te hormony mogą prowadzić do paradoksalnego rozszerzenia naczyń krwionośnych w stanie względnego niedoboru objętości.28
  3. Odpowiedzi autonomiczne – Rozciągnięcie jelita cienkiego i uwolnienie hormonów jelitowych może inicjować odpowiedzi autonomiczne, wpływające na ciśnienie krwi, rytm serca, zaczerwienienie skóry i pasaż jelitowy.29

Mechanizmy późnego zespołu porezekcyjnego

Późny zespół porezekcyjny występuje 1-3 godziny po posiłku i jest głównie związany z hipoglikemią reaktywną, wynikającą z hiperinsulinemicznej odpowiedzi po spożyciu węglowodanów.30 Mechanizmy obejmują:

  1. Hiperinsulinemia reaktywna – Szybka dostawa niestrawnych węglowodanów do jelita cienkiego może powodować wysokie stężenie glukozy, które indukuje odpowiedź hiperinsulinemiczną, prowadzącą do późniejszej hipoglikemii.3132
  2. Zwiększona sekrecja inkretyn – Szczególną uwagę zwrócono na hormony inkretynowe, takie jak glukagonopodobny peptyd-1 (GLP-1) i glukozozależny insulinotropowy peptyd (GIP), które są uwalniane z proksymalnej części jelita cienkiego i stymulują wydzielanie insuliny po wzroście stężenia glukozy, prowadząc do reaktywnej hipoglikemii.3334
  3. Hiperplazja komórek wysp trzustkowych – W niektórych przypadkach, zwłaszcza po operacjach bariatrycznych, może dojść do rozwoju hiperplazji komórek wysp trzustkowych (nesidioblastozy), co uważa się za podstawowy mechanizm hiperinsulinemicznej hipoglikemii po operacji bypass żołądka.35

Związek między rodzajem operacji a ryzykiem zespołu porezekcyjnego

Ryzyko i nasilenie zespołu porezekcyjnego są ściśle związane z rodzajem i zakresem przeprowadzonego zabiegu chirurgicznego.3637

Chirurgia bariatryczna

Chirurgia bariatryczna stała się główną przyczyną pooperacyjnego zespołu porezekcyjnego.38 Zespół porezekcyjny występuje u około 40% pacjentów po operacji bypass żołądkowy typu Roux-en-Y lub rękawowej resekcji żołądka.39 Według niektórych badań, nawet 85% pacjentów po operacji Roux-en-Y doświadczy objawów zespołu porezekcyjnego w pewnym momencie po zabiegu.40

Wśród operacji bariatrycznych bypass żołądkowy typu Roux-en-Y wiąże się z najwyższym ryzykiem zespołu porezekcyjnego, ponieważ zmienia anatomię poprzez zmniejszenie żołądka i połączenie go bezpośrednio z jelitem cienkim, omijając dwunastnicę. To prowadzi do szybkiego pasażu treści pokarmowej, szczególnie bogatej w cukry, do jelita cienkiego.4142

Rękawowa resekcja żołądka (gastric sleeve) również może prowadzić do zespołu porezekcyjnego, chociaż rzadziej i z mniejszym nasileniem objawów niż po operacji bypass żołądkowy. Resekcja około 85% żołądka w rękawowej resekcji żołądka powoduje poważne zmiany w anatomii i funkcji żołądka, a badania z wykorzystaniem testów prowokacyjnych z glukozą wykazały, że około 25% pacjentów rozwija objawy zespołu porezekcyjnego.43

Chirurgia żołądka i przełyku

Zespół porezekcyjny jest także często obserwowany po operacjach żołądka i przełyku, wykonywanych z powodu nowotworów lub innych schorzeń. Występuje u około 20% pacjentów po wagotomii z pyloroplastyką i nawet u 50% pacjentów po ezofagektomii.44

Zabiegi chirurgiczne, które usuwają lub omijają odźwiernik, jak gastrektomia, pyloroplastyka czy gastrojejunostomia, są szczególnie związane z wysokim ryzykiem zespołu porezekcyjnego, ponieważ prowadzą do utraty naturalnego mechanizmu kontrolującego opróżnianie żołądkowe.45

Wagotomia, czyli przecięcie nerwu błędnego, wpływa na napięcie żołądka i jego zdolność do akomodacji pokarmu, co może prowadzić do przyspieszonego opróżniania żołądkowego.46

Rola zmian hormonalnych i autonomicznych w zespole porezekcyjnym

Zmiany hormonalne i autonomiczne odgrywają kluczową rolę w patogenezie zespołu porezekcyjnego, wpływając zarówno na wczesne, jak i późne objawy.47

Wpływ hormonów inkretynowych

Hormony inkretynowe, takie jak glukagonopodobny peptyd-1 (GLP-1) i glukozozależny peptyd insulinotropowy (GIP), odgrywają istotną rolę w patofizjologii zespołu porezekcyjnego, szczególnie w jego późnej fazie.4849

GLP-1 to hormon wydzielany przez komórki L jelita cienkiego, głównie w jelicie krętym, który stymuluje wydzielanie insuliny z komórek trzustkowych. Po operacji bypass żołądkowy typu Roux-en-Y lub innych operacjach zmieniających anatomię przewodu pokarmowego, treść pokarmowa bogata w cukry szybciej dociera do dystalnych odcinków jelita cienkiego, co prowadzi do zwiększonego wydzielania GLP-1.50

Zwiększone wydzielanie inkretyn prowadzi do nadmiernej sekrecji insuliny po posiłku, co może powodować hipoglikemię reaktywną 1-3 godziny po posiłku, charakterystyczną dla późnego zespołu porezekcyjnego.5152

Co interesujące, antagonizowanie działania GLP-1 może prowadzić do zmniejszenia występowania hipoglikemii poposiłkowej, co potwierdza rolę tego hormonu w patogenezie zespołu porezekcyjnego.53

Rola mediatorów wazoaktywnych

Szybki napływ treści pokarmowej do jelita cienkiego prowadzi do uwolnienia różnych mediatorów wazoaktywnych, które wpływają na objawy wczesnego zespołu porezekcyjnego.54

Mediatory te, takie jak serotonina i wazoaktywny peptyd jelitowy (VIP), mogą powodować paradoksalne rozszerzenie naczyń krwionośnych w stanie względnego niedoboru objętości, przyczyniając się do objawów, takich jak spadek ciśnienia krwi, tachykardia, zaczerwienienie skóry i zawroty głowy.5556

Aktywacja autonomicznego układu nerwowego w odpowiedzi na rozciągnięcie jelita i uwolnienie hormonów może również przyczyniać się do objawów wczesnego zespołu porezekcyjnego.57

Znaczenie czynników dietetycznych w zespole porezekcyjnym

Czynniki dietetyczne odgrywają istotną rolę w wywoływaniu objawów zespołu porezekcyjnego, szczególnie spożywanie określonych typów pokarmów.58

Wpływ spożywania cukrów i węglowodanów

Pokarmy bogate w cukry proste i węglowodany o wysokim indeksie glikemicznym są głównym czynnikiem wywołującym objawy zespołu porezekcyjnego.5960

Rafinowane cukry w żołądku mogą szybko absorbować wodę, co nasila objawy wczesnego zespołu porezekcyjnego.61 Ponadto, spożywanie produktów bogatych w cukry proste prowadzi do szybkiego wzrostu stężenia glukozy w jelicie cienkim, co stymuluje wydzielanie dużych ilości insuliny, prowadząc do hipoglikemii reaktywnej i objawów późnego zespołu porezekcyjnego.62

Zespół porezekcyjny zwykle pojawia się z powodu niewłaściwych wyborów żywieniowych. Spożywanie rafinowanych cukrów (np. napojów bezalkoholowych i słodyczy) lub żywności o wysokim indeksie glikemicznym to najczęstsze czynniki wywołujące objawy.63

Indeks glikemiczny (IG) jest miarą tego, jak szybko pokarmy są wchłaniane i powodują wzrost poziomu cukru we krwi po ich spożyciu. Wybór produktów o niższym indeksie glikemicznym i ograniczenie produktów o wysokim IG, bogatych w cukier, może pomóc zapobiec dużym wahaniom poziomu cukru we krwi, co zmniejszy objawy późnego zespołu porezekcyjnego.64

Rola produktów mlecznych i tłuszczów

Oprócz cukrów, produkty mleczne i określone tłuszcze lub smażone potrawy mogą również wywoływać objawy zespołu porezekcyjnego.6566

Laktoza, czyli cukier mleczny, może u niektórych pacjentów prowadzić do objawów zespołu porezekcyjnego, szczególnie u osób, które przeszły operację bariatryczną.67

Pokarmy o wysokiej zawartości tłuszczu mogą również przyczyniać się do rozwoju objawów zespołu porezekcyjnego, ponieważ mogą wpływać na szybkość opróżniania żołądkowego i stymulować wydzielanie hormonów jelitowych.68

Niektórzy pacjenci mogą doświadczać „tłuszczowego zespołu porezekcyjnego”, który objawia się biegunką i zaburzeniami wchłaniania składników odżywczych po spożyciu pokarmów bogatych w tłuszcze.69

Zespół porezekcyjny jako komplikacja pooperacyjna

Zespół porezekcyjny jest często występującą, ale niedostatecznie rozpoznawaną komplikacją po operacjach górnego odcinka przewodu pokarmowego.70

Częstość występowania w zależności od typu operacji

Częstość występowania zespołu porezekcyjnego zależy od rodzaju i zakresu przeprowadzonego zabiegu chirurgicznego oraz od kryteriów diagnozowania.71

Zespół porezekcyjny występuje u około 20-50% pacjentów, którzy przeszli operację żołądka.7273 Jest szczególnie częsty u osób, które przeszły operacje usunięcia lub ominięcia dużych części żołądka, takie jak gastrektomia lub bypass żołądkowy.74

Według badań, zespół porezekcyjny występuje u około 20% pacjentów po wagotomii z pyloroplastyką, u prawie 40% pacjentów po operacji typu Roux-en-Y lub rękawowej resekcji żołądka oraz u nawet 50% pacjentów po ezofagektomii.75

Wśród pacjentów po operacji bypass żołądkowy typu Roux-en-Y, nawet 85% może doświadczyć objawów zespołu porezekcyjnego w pewnym momencie po zabiegu.76

Niedawne badanie, w którym wykorzystano ciągłe monitorowanie glukozy (CGM), wykazało, że częstość występowania hipoglikemii poposiłkowej po operacji bariatrycznej wynosiła aż 50% u pacjentów, którzy przeszli operację bypass żołądkowy typu Roux-en-Y lub rękawową resekcję żołądka.77

Wpływ zespołu porezekcyjnego na jakość życia

Objawy zespołu porezekcyjnego są często wyczerpujące i emocjonalnie stresujące, wiążą się ze znacznym obniżeniem jakości życia i mogą prowadzić do znacznej utraty masy ciała w wyniku unikania przez pacjenta spożywania pokarmów.78

Wielu pacjentów z zespołem porezekcyjnym nie jest świadomych tego stanu i nie otrzymało odpowiedniej edukacji na jego temat.79 To może prowadzić do niewłaściwego zarządzania objawami i pogorszenia jakości życia.

W ciężkich przypadkach zespołu porezekcyjnego pacjenci mogą rozwinąć lęk przed jedzeniem, utratę masy ciała i niedożywienie.80 Niektóre osoby mogą doświadczać objawów podobnych do zespołu jelita drażliwego lub gastroparezy (opóźnionego opróżniania żołądkowego), co może prowadzić do błędnej diagnozy.81

Ciężki zespół porezekcyjny może być prekursorem kilku powikłań, w tym niedożywienia i utraty masy ciała z powodu zaburzeń wchłaniania składników odżywczych i przewlekłej biegunki.82

Czas występowania objawów zespołu porezekcyjnego

Zespół porezekcyjny można podzielić na wczesny i późny w zależności od czasu występowania objawów w stosunku do czasu, który upłynął po posiłku.83

Wczesny zespół porezekcyjny

Wczesny zespół porezekcyjny występuje w ciągu 10-30 minut po posiłku.84 Jest doświadczany przez około 75% pacjentów, którzy zgłaszają objawy zespołu porezekcyjnego.85

Objawy wczesnego zespołu porezekcyjnego są spowodowane nagłym napływem dużej ilości pokarmu do jelita cienkiego. Prowadzi to do szybkiego przemieszczania się płynu do jelita, co powoduje dyskomfort, wzdęcia i biegunkę.86

Wczesny zespół porezekcyjny występuje w wyniku szybkiego opróżniania cukrów lub węglowodanów z żołądka do jelita cienkiego, co powoduje uwolnienie hormonów (peptydów jelitowych), które wpływają na ciśnienie krwi, częstość akcji serca, zaczerwienienie skóry i pasaż jelitowy, prowadząc do uczucia zawrotów głowy, przyspieszenia akcji serca i zaczerwienienia, często z towarzyszącą biegunką.87

Wczesny zespół porezekcyjny zwykle występuje przez trzy do czterech miesięcy po operacji.88

Późny zespół porezekcyjny

Późny zespół porezekcyjny występuje zazwyczaj 1-3 godziny po posiłku.89 Dotyka około 25% pacjentów z zespołem porezekcyjnym.9091

Objawy późnego zespołu porezekcyjnego wynikają z nadmiernego wydzielania insuliny. Insulina jest hormonem, który pomaga organizmowi absorbować cukry uwalniane z żywności. Zwiększony poziom insuliny we krwi prowadzi do niskiego poziomu cukru we krwi.92

Późny zespół porezekcyjny jest spowodowany hipoglikemią, która występuje w wyniku nadmiernego wydzielania insuliny w odpowiedzi na szybkie wejście pokarmu i płynów do jelita cienkiego.93

Termin hipoglikemia poposiłkowa (PPH) i późny zespół porezekcyjny są używane zamiennie. Patofizjologia zespołu porezekcyjnego i PPH jest identyczna, a PPH powinna być postrzegana i leczona jako manifestacja późnego zespołu porezekcyjnego.94

Późny zespół porezekcyjny może występować przez cały rok, ale może utrzymywać się przez wiele lat.95

Związek zespołu porezekcyjnego z utratą masy ciała po operacjach bariatrycznych

Zespół porezekcyjny jest częstym powikłaniem po operacjach bariatrycznych i może wpływać na utratę masy ciała po tych zabiegach.96

Rola zespołu porezekcyjnego w redukcji masy ciała

Sukces operacji bypass żołądkowy typu Roux-en-Y jest zwykle przypisywany redukcji objętości żołądka i zaburzeniom wchłaniania kalorii wtórnym do ominięcia jelita cienkiego, co prowadzi do znacznych zmian w zachowaniach żywieniowych i wzorcach posiłków.97

Zaproponowano, że zespół porezekcyjny, poprzez swoje niekorzystne skutki dla tolerancji pokarmowej i spożycia, może być istotnym składnikiem redukcji masy ciała po operacji bariatrycznej.98

Jednak żadne badanie nie wykazało, że uczestnicy, którzy mają objawy zespołu porezekcyjnego, tracą więcej masy ciała niż ci, którzy ich nie mają.99

Wpływ na nawyki żywieniowe

Zespół porezekcyjny może wpływać na nawyki żywieniowe pacjentów po operacjach bariatrycznych, prowadząc do zmiany ich preferencji pokarmowych i wzorców jedzenia.100

Wielu pacjentów jest w stanie zidentyfikować pokarmy lub zachowania, które zwiększają prawdopodobieństwo wystąpienia zespołu porezekcyjnego, takie jak zbyt duże spożycie, zbyt szybkie jedzenie, picie w trakcie posiłków oraz jedzenie tłustych lub słodkich pokarmów, i mogą łatwo ich unikać w przyszłości.101

W przypadku ciężkiego zespołu porezekcyjnego pacjenci mogą rozwinąć lęk przed jedzeniem, co może prowadzić do znacznej utraty masy ciała i niedożywienia.102

Zespół porezekcyjny bez poprzedzającej operacji

Chociaż zespół porezekcyjny jest najczęściej związany z operacjami górnego odcinka przewodu pokarmowego, może również występować u osób, które nie przeszły operacji żołądka.103104

Przyczyny idiopatycznego zespołu porezekcyjnego

W literaturze opisano niewielką liczbę pacjentów z reaktywną hipoglikemią bez wcześniejszej operacji, którzy wykazywali późną hipoglikemię w doustnym teście obciążenia glukozą. Szybkie opróżnianie żołądkowe wydawało się być wspólnym mechanizmem leżącym u podstaw tego zjawiska.105

Chociaż szybkie opróżnianie żołądkowe jest kluczowym mechanizmem w zespole porezekcyjnym, jego dokładność diagnostyczna wydaje się być niska.106

Interesującym odkryciem wśród grupy idiopatycznej było to, że 32% pacjentów idiopatycznych doświadczyło wcześniej zapalenia żołądka i jelit. Chociaż potrzebne byłyby dalsze badania, aby ustalić prawdziwość tej zależności, a także mechanizm, możliwym wyjaśnieniem jest to, że te choroby spowodowały uszkodzenie receptorów dwunastnicy, a mianowicie receptorów tłuszczowych i osmotycznych, które kontrolują opróżnianie żołądkowe. Inną możliwością jest uszkodzenie nerwu błędnego, prowadzące do zmniejszonego rozkurczu dna żołądka i akomodacji, co ułatwia szybkie opróżnianie.107

Zespół porezekcyjny w przebiegu chorób współtowarzyszących

Zespół porezekcyjny może być również związany z nieoperacyjnymi przyczynami, z których najważniejszą jest cukrzyca.108

Cukrzyca jest dobrze rozpoznaną przyczyną szybkiego opróżniania żołądkowego i przypisuje się ją wczesnemu uszkodzeniu nerwu błędnego z powodu zwyrodnienia nerwów Wallera.109

Inne choroby, które mogą być związane z zespołem porezekcyjnym, to:110111

  • Zespół cyklicznych wymiotów
  • Dysfunkcja autonomiczna
  • Zewnątrzwydzielnicza niewydolność trzustki
  • Owrzodzenie dwunastnicy
  • Zespół Zollingera-Ellisona
  • Dyspepsja czynnościowa

1

W wielu przypadkach szybkie opróżnianie żołądkowe pozostaje idiopatyczne (o nieznanym pochodzeniu).2

Zespół porezekcyjny u pacjentów z cukrzycą

Cukrzyca jest dobrze rozpoznaną przyczyną zaburzeń motoryki żołądka, które mogą prowadzić zarówno do szybkiego, jak i opóźnionego opróżniania żołądkowego.112

Mechanizmy szybkiego opróżniania żołądkowego w cukrzycy

Wśród identyfikowalnych czynników przyczynowych zespołu porezekcyjnego u pacjentów nieoperowanych cukrzyca jest najczęstsza.113

Cukrzyca może powodować zarówno (1) szybkie opróżnianie lub prezentację typu zespołu porezekcyjnego, jak i (2) opóźnione opróżnianie lub prezentację typu gastroparezy.114

Cukrzyca o krótszym czasie trwania jest związana z szybkim opróżnianiem żołądkowym. Spekuluje się, że to szybkie opróżnianie żołądkowe jest spowodowane wczesnym uszkodzeniem nerwu błędnego, prawdopodobnie dystalnym uszkodzeniem nerwu błędnego, przy czym gastropareza rozwija się po bardziej kompletnej utracie nerwu błędnego.115

Współwystępowanie gastroparezy i zespołu porezekcyjnego

Gastropareza i zespół porezekcyjny to dwa schorzenia, które wynikają z zaburzenia mechanizmu opróżniania żołądkowego. Podczas gdy gastropareza jest wynikiem znacznie opóźnionego opróżniania żołądkowego, zespół porezekcyjny jest konsekwencją zwiększonego przepływu pokarmu do jelita cienkiego.116

Najczęstszymi przyczynami obu schorzeń są cukrzyca i operacje. U dużej części pacjentów podstawowa przyczyna pozostaje nieznana (tzw. idiopatyczna gastropareza). Ta forma jest spotykana szczególnie u młodszych kobiet i wydaje się być związana z infekcją wirusową (do 20%).117

Co ciekawe, badania potwierdzają hipotezę, że pacjenci z gastroparezą i zespołem gastroparezo-podobnym (GLS) są częścią spektrum, a zapalenie jest czynnikiem leżącym u podstaw. Zapalenie zostało stwierdzone u pacjentów z tymi zaburzeniami, zwykle z podwyższonymi poziomami białka C-reaktywnego (CRP).118

    Dumping syndrome is a condition in which food, especially food high in sugar, moves from your stomach into your small bowel too quickly after you eat. […] Sometimes called rapid gastric emptying, dumping syndrome most often occurs as a result of surgery on your stomach or esophagus. […] In dumping syndrome, food and gastric juices from your stomach move to your small intestine in an uncontrolled, abnormally fast manner. This is most often related to changes in your stomach associated with surgery, including any stomach surgery or major esophageal surgery, such as removal of the esophagus (esophagectomy). […] But in rare cases, dumping syndrome can develop without a history of surgery or other obvious causes.

    People who have had stomach or weight-loss surgery can develop dumping syndrome, which causes cramping, diarrhea and, sometimes, low blood sugar. […] Dumping syndrome is a condition in which food, especially food high in sugar, moves from your stomach into your small bowel too quickly after you eat. Sometimes called rapid gastric emptying, dumping syndrome most often occurs as a result of surgery on your stomach or esophagus. […] In dumping syndrome, food and gastric juices from your stomach move to your small intestine in an uncontrolled, abnormally fast manner. This is most often related to changes in your stomach associated with surgery, including any stomach surgery or major esophageal surgery, such as removal of the esophagus (esophagectomy). But in rare cases, dumping syndrome can develop without a history of surgery or other obvious causes.

    https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/173594-overview
    Dumping can be separated into early and late forms depending on the occurrence of symptoms in relation to the time elapsed after a meal. Both forms occur because of the rapid delivery of large amounts of osmotically active solids and liquids to the duodenum. This is a direct result of alterations in the storage function of the stomach and/or pyloric emptying mechanism. […] The severity of dumping syndrome is proportional to the rate of gastric emptying. Postprandially, the stomach assumes its reservoir function to allow initial chemical digestion by acid and proteases before transferring food to the antrum. In the antrum, high-amplitude contractions triturate solids. Once solids have been reduced to 1-2 mm, they are able to empty through the pylorus. An intact pylorus has a separating function that prevents the passage of larger particles into the duodenum. Gastric emptying is controlled by fundic tone, antropyloric mechanisms, and duodenal feedback. Gastric surgery alters these mechanisms in several ways.

This article provides an update on the etiologies and clinical spectrum that represent the current DS patient population. […] DS may also be associated with non-surgical etiologies, the most prominent being diabetes. Diabetes is a well-recognized etiology of rapid gastric emptying and is attributed to early vagal damage from Wallerian nerve degeneration. […] Among etiologic factors of DS in our patient group, DM was the most common. As previously mentioned, we would expect that at medical centers specializing in bariatric surgery, surgical causes of DS would make a bigger contribution. Additionally, the population of El Paso, Texas (the location of our motility center) is predominantly Hispanic, which nationality has a well-established genetic susceptibility to DM2. With the increasing prevalence of DM2, it is likely that the number of Americans with GI motility disorders will increase as well. Thus, the importance of the DM2 DS population cannot be ignored. Although long-standing DM has classically been associated with gastroparesis, previous studies have demonstrated that DM of shorter duration is linked to rapid gastric emptying. It is speculated that this RGE is due to early vagal damage, probably distal vagal damage, with gastroparesis evolving after more complete vagal loss.

    An interesting finding in our study among our idiopathic group was that 32% of idiopathic patients had experienced a preceding gastroenteritis. Although further studies would be needed to establish the veracity of this relationship, as well as the mechanism, a possible explanation for this is that these illnesses induced injury to duodenal receptors, namely fat and osmotic receptors which control gastric emptying. Another possibility is vagal nerve damage resulting in decreased fundic relaxation and accommodation, facilitating rapid emptying.

    Dumping syndrome is a common side effect after Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RNYGB) surgery. About 85% of gastric bypass patients will experience dumping syndrome at some point after surgery. The symptoms can range from mild to severe. […] Dumping usually occurs due to poor food choices. It is related to the ingestion of refined sugars (including high fructose corn syrup) or high glycemic carbohydrates. It can also occur with dairy products, some fats, and fried foods. These foods rapidly empty from the gastric pouch into the small intestine which triggers a cascade of physiologic events. […] Early dumping occurs as a result of rapid emptying of sugars or carbohydrates from the gastric pouch into the small intestine which causes the release of hormones (gut peptides) that effect blood pressure, heart rate, skin flushing and intestinal transit, leading to a light-headed, rapid heart rate and flushing sensation often accompanied by diarrhea. Late dumping symptoms are related to increased insulin after oral glucose (sugar) with subsequent hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).

[…] Symptoms of late dumping syndrome usually occur between 1 and 3h after a meal and are primarily the manifestations of hypoglycaemia, which mainly results from an incretin-driven hyperinsulinaemic response after carbohydrate ingestion. […] The rapid expansion in the use of bariatric interventions has therefore led to an increasing number of patients with dumping syndrome. […] The literature is not clear on the relative prevalence of early dumping syndrome versus late dumping syndrome.

[…] Rapid delivery of undigested carbohydrates to the small intestine might result in high concentrations of glucose that induce a hyperinsulinaemic response, resulting in subsequent hypoglycaemia and related late dumping syndrome. […] The success of RYGB surgery is usually attributed to gastric volume reduction and calorie malabsorption secondary to the bypass of the small intestine, which leads to markedly changed eating behaviour and meal patterns. […] It has been proposed that dumping syndrome, through its adverse effects on food tolerance and intake, might be an essential component of the weight reduction after bariatric surgery.

    Dumping syndrome is a common side effect after Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RNYGB) surgery. About 85% of gastric bypass patients will experience dumping syndrome at some point after surgery. The symptoms can range from mild to severe. […] Dumping usually occurs due to poor food choices. It is related to the ingestion of refined sugars (including high fructose corn syrup) or high glycemic carbohydrates. It can also occur with dairy products, some fats, and fried foods. These foods rapidly empty from the gastric pouch into the small intestine which triggers a cascade of physiologic events. […] Early dumping occurs as a result of rapid emptying of sugars or carbohydrates from the gastric pouch into the small intestine which causes the release of hormones (gut peptides) that effect blood pressure, heart rate, skin flushing and intestinal transit, leading to a light-headed, rapid heart rate and flushing sensation often accompanied by diarrhea. Late dumping symptoms are related to increased insulin after oral glucose (sugar) with subsequent hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).

    Dumping syndrome (or rapid gastric emptying) is a common side effect of gastric bypass surgery (but not other bariatric surgeries). […] Dumping syndrome is almost always caused by eating too much sugar, too many high-fat foods, or sometimes by eating too quickly after surgery. […] Early stage dumping is usually caused by either eating your food too quickly; or eating foods that are high in fat, sugar, or simple carbohydrates (such as white bread). […] Late stage dumping syndrome is your body’s second reaction to the food being dumped into your small intestine, and affects patients 1 to 3 hours after they eat. […] When your body senses food in the small intestine (especially sugar), it responds by producing insulin. Unfortunately, your body’s response is an overreaction in this case, and the sudden and excessive dump of insulin is too much for the amount of sugar, which leads to a drop in your blood sugar.

    Gastric resection can reduce the fundic reservoir, thereby reducing the receptiveness of the stomach to a meal. Similarly, vagotomy increases gastric tone, limiting accommodation. […] Any operation in which the pylorus is removed, bypassed, or destroyed increases the rate of gastric emptying. Duodenal feedback inhibition of gastric emptying is also lost after bypass of the duodenum with gastrojejunostomy. Accelerated early gastric emptying of liquids is a characteristic feature and a critical step in the pathogenesis of dumping syndrome. […] Gastric mucosal function is altered by surgery, and acid and enzymatic secretions are decreased. Also, hormonal secretions that sustain the gastric phase of digestion are adversely affected.

[…] Although the precise mechanism of DS is not known, dumping is a phenomenon usually caused by the destruction or bypass of the pyloric sphincter. […] DS can occur in postgastric bypass patients when high levels of simple carbohydrates are ingested. […] It is believed that the osmotic gradient draws fluid into the intestine, and this may release one or more vasoactive hormones, such as serotonin and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide. […] Most patients with PHH can be managed with the same dietary modifications suggested for early DS. […] This phenomenon is not strictly due to alterations of osmotic gradients across the GI tract, but rather is thought to result from hypoglycemia following a postprandial insulin peak.

[…] Sugary, high-fat foods and dairy products should be avoided, as they tend to cause problems. Its better to eat high amounts of protein and complex proteins, which take the body longer to break down.

    Dumping syndrome is a condition that can occur after a person undergoes certain types of stomach surgeries, such as gastric bypass. […] Specific food and beverage components are more likely to cause dumping syndrome. Added sugars top the list, followed by high fats and occasionally the sugar naturally occurring in dairy products (lactose). […] With gastric bypass surgery, food movement between the stomach and small intestine is no longer regulated by a sphincter muscle that opens and closes. Instead, the contents of the stomach empty via gravity through a small opening, called a stoma. When foods with high concentrations of added sugar, fat, and, occasionally, lactose enter the small intestine, the body releases water in an attempt to dilute them. In addition, hormones are released that impact blood pressure and speed the transit time through the intestine.

    https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/173594-overview
    Dumping can be separated into early and late forms depending on the occurrence of symptoms in relation to the time elapsed after a meal. Both forms occur because of the rapid delivery of large amounts of osmotically active solids and liquids to the duodenum. This is a direct result of alterations in the storage function of the stomach and/or pyloric emptying mechanism. […] The severity of dumping syndrome is proportional to the rate of gastric emptying. Postprandially, the stomach assumes its reservoir function to allow initial chemical digestion by acid and proteases before transferring food to the antrum. In the antrum, high-amplitude contractions triturate solids. Once solids have been reduced to 1-2 mm, they are able to empty through the pylorus. An intact pylorus has a separating function that prevents the passage of larger particles into the duodenum. Gastric emptying is controlled by fundic tone, antropyloric mechanisms, and duodenal feedback. Gastric surgery alters these mechanisms in several ways.

    Sweaty, shaky, diarrhea? If you find yourself feeling this way after a meal, it could be a condition called Dumping Syndrome. After gastric bypass surgery, and occasionally with other bariatric procedures, patients may experience this unpleasant side effect. But why does Dumping Syndrome occur? And why does it affect gastric bypass patients more than others? […] Because of these changes, fats and sugars rapidly enter a part of the intestine that previously did not encounter this less digested food. This shocks the system, leading to the unpleasant side effects known as Dumping Syndrome. […] Rapid emptying is one of the root causes for Dumping Syndrome, so it is wise to avoid drinking within 45 minutes before and after a meal. […] Finally, while not unheard of, the incidence of Dumping Syndrome is much lower for patients who choose the sleeve gastrectomy or duodenal switch. […] Many patients are able to identify foods or behaviors that increase the likelihood of dumping syndrome like eating too much, too quickly, drinking with meals and eating fatty or sugary foods and can easily avoid them in the future.

    Dumping syndrome is a collection of gastrointestinal and other symptoms that occur after a person eats. […] The majority of individuals that experience dumping symptoms have had a gastric bypass surgery, such as Roux-en-Y, or a surgical procedure that removes part or all of the stomach called a gastrectomy. […] Dumping syndrome is most likely to occur within the first few weeks following surgery or when you return to your normal diet. […] Individuals with severe cases of dumping syndrome may develop a fear of eating, weight loss, and malnutrition. […] If you experience severe weight loss, and are having a difficult time managing your symptoms, please contact your medical provider. […] It is not possible to completely prevent dumping syndrome, but dietary adjustments may decrease the severity and prevent recurrences.

    Dumping syndrome is a condition in which food, especially food high in sugar, moves from your stomach into your small bowel too quickly after you eat. […] Sometimes called rapid gastric emptying, dumping syndrome most often occurs as a result of surgery on your stomach or esophagus. […] In dumping syndrome, food and gastric juices from your stomach move to your small intestine in an uncontrolled, abnormally fast manner. This is most often related to changes in your stomach associated with surgery, including any stomach surgery or major esophageal surgery, such as removal of the esophagus (esophagectomy). […] But in rare cases, dumping syndrome can develop without a history of surgery or other obvious causes.

    Rapid gastric emptying, a condition in which food moves too quickly from your stomach to your duodenum, causes dumping syndrome. […] Experts think that the excess hormones and movement of fluid into your small intestine cause the symptoms of early dumping syndrome. […] Experts also think that these excess hormones may cause your pancreas to produce too much insulin. Too much insulin can lead to low blood glucose 1 to 3 hours after a meal, causing the symptoms of late dumping syndrome. […] The most common cause of rapid gastric emptying and dumping syndrome is surgery of the stomach or esophagus. […] Rapid gastric emptying sometimes occurs in people who have not had stomach surgery.

    An interesting finding in our study among our idiopathic group was that 32% of idiopathic patients had experienced a preceding gastroenteritis. Although further studies would be needed to establish the veracity of this relationship, as well as the mechanism, a possible explanation for this is that these illnesses induced injury to duodenal receptors, namely fat and osmotic receptors which control gastric emptying. Another possibility is vagal nerve damage resulting in decreased fundic relaxation and accommodation, facilitating rapid emptying.

    Dumping syndrome (DS) has historically been associated with gastric surgery and vagotomy, as well as diabetes mellitus (DM). This article provides an update on the etiologies and clinical spectrum that represent the current DS patient population. […] DS may also be associated with non-surgical etiologies, the most prominent being diabetes. Diabetes is a well-recognized etiology of rapid gastric emptying and is attributed to early vagal damage from Wallerian nerve degeneration. […] Among etiologic factors of DS in our patient group, DM was the most common. As previously mentioned, we would expect that at medical centers specializing in bariatric surgery, surgical causes of DS would make a bigger contribution. Additionally, the population of El Paso, Texas (the location of our motility center) is predominantly Hispanic, which nationality has a well-established genetic susceptibility to DM2. With the increasing prevalence of DM2, it is likely that the number of Americans with GI motility disorders will increase as well. Thus, the importance of the DM2 DS population cannot be ignored. Although long-standing DM has classically been associated with gastroparesis, previous studies have demonstrated that DM of shorter duration is linked to rapid gastric emptying. It is speculated that this RGE is due to early vagal damage, probably distal vagal damage, with gastroparesis evolving after more complete vagal loss.

    Dumping syndrome is a medical condition in which your stomach empties its contents into your small intestine more rapidly than it should. Its also called rapid gastric emptying. […] Dumping syndrome most commonly happens as a complication of surgery on your stomach, or on your esophagus where it connects to your stomach. An estimated 20% to 50% of people who have had stomach surgery develop some symptoms of dumping syndrome. It’s most common in people who have had surgeries that remove or bypass large portions of the stomach, such as gastrectomy or gastric bypass surgery. […] Surgical causes include: Gastrectomy. Surgery to remove part or all of the stomach. Bariatric surgery for weight loss, such as gastric bypass. Pyloroplasty. An operation on the pyloric valve at the bottom of your stomach. Esophagectomy. Surgery to remove part or all of the esophagus. Vagotomy. Surgery to cut the vagus nerve in the stomach to reduce stomach acid. Nissen fundoplication. Surgery to sew the top of the stomach around the esophagus. […] Disease-related causes include: Diabetes mellitus. Cyclic vomiting syndrome. Autonomic dysfunction. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. Duodenal ulcers. Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Functional dyspepsia. Cannabis hyperemesis syndrome.

    DS is a cluster of symptoms that can occur when undigested food moves too quickly into the intestines. […] The incidence and severity of postsurgical DS corresponds to the type of surgery performed. […] DS also has been reported in patients with diabetes, cyclic vomiting syndrome, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. […] Another factor that may play a role in the pathophysiology of both early and late dumping is increased secretion of GI hormones, although their exact mechanism is unclear. […] Severe dumping can be a precursor to several complications, including malnutrition and weight loss due to nutrient malabsorption and chronic diarrhea. […] Many patients with DS have symptoms similar to irritable bowel syndrome or gastroparesis (delayed gastric emptying), which can result in misdiagnosis.

    Gastroparesis and dumping syndrome both evolve from a disturbed gastric emptying mechanism. While gastroparesis results from significantly delayed gastric emptying, dumping syndrome is a consequence of increased flux of food into the small bowel. […] The most frequent etiologies are diabetes and surgery. In a high proportion of patients, the underlying cause remains unknown (so called idiopathic gastroparesis). This form is found in particular in younger women and appears to be associated with viral infection (in up to 20%). Less frequent etiologic factors are Parkinson’s disease, amyloid, tumors (paraneoplastic gastroparesis), scleroderma, or mesenteric ischemia. Importantly, medication-induced gastroparesis has to be considered in all patients. […] Dumping syndrome is a frequently encountered postsurgical complication that can be divided into an early and late subtype. Alterations in gastric anatomy after esophageal, gastric and bariatric surgery result in rapid passage of food into the small intestine, which leads to early gastrointestinal and vasomotor symptoms (within 1 h) and late hypoglycemia (1 to 3 h after meal ingestion).
