Biotechnology and surgerical methods

Introduction :
Biotechnology is a broad range of technologies that employ living organisms or
parts of them to make diverse products. For example, drugs and therapeutics,
nutritional compounds, environmentally friendly chemicals and materials,
biofuels, and novel functional materials can be produced through biotechnology.
More detailed examples

 Bioproduction of sustainable chemicals, energy and other materials.

 Genetically modified crops increases sustainable food production. 
 Seawater bioprocesses to produce fuel and chemicals. 
 Zero-waste bio-processing. 
 Carbon dioxide as a raw material.
 Regenerative medicine to create new organs.
Biotechnology and Its relation with surgeries
surgeons closer to biotechnologies and to overcome the cultural gap dividing them from
these new approaches. Biotechnologies are already proposed and used at different
levels in surgical practice: in diagnostic technique, enabling practitioners to identify
diseases at an early stage and follow their molecular modification over time; and in
tissue engineering, where the use of "smart scaffolds" offers a possible answer to
increasing demand for biocompatible tissues and organs in transplantation surgery

Treating diabetes
Current Diabetes Treatment using Biotechnological Techniques
Insulin is a pancreatic hormone that regulates glucose in blood circulation by allow cells to
use glucose as energy. Due to advancement in biotechnology, genetic engineering is
currently used to manufacture human insulin Instead of taking it from pigs
 
Treating diabetes by surgerical biotechnology
Nearly all individuals who have surgery to treat diabetes (also called metabolic/bariatric surgery) show
improvement in their diabetes, sometimes as quickly as a few days after surgery. They experience lower blood
sugar levels, need less diabetes medications, and see an improvement in diabetes-related health problems.
These operations result in less food intake and decreased calories absorbed. Most importantly, however, these
operations result in changes to the metabolism that affect intestinal hormones that regulate blood sugar control,
often before the patient loses any weight. In addition, these procedures reduce hunger, increase the sense of
fullness after meals, and assist the body’s ability to achieve a healthy weight.
great deal of scientific evidence supports the use of diabetes surgery in patients with BMI of 30 and greater. If
you have type 2 diabetes and a BMI of 30 and above, you may qualify for diabetes treatment through surgery.
Types of diabetes surgeries treatment
ROUX-EN-Y GASTRIC BYPASS (GASTRIC BYPASS):

The gastric bypass has now been performed for over 50 years. This operation alters the gastrointestinal (GI)
tract allowing food to avoid (bypass) most of the stomach and the upper portion of the small intestine. The
operation results in significant weight loss, remission of type 2 diabetes in nearly 80 percent of patients, and
improvement of diabetes in an additional 15 percent.

SLEEVE GASTRECTOMY (SLEEVE):

The sleeve is an operation that removes a portion of the stomach. The remaining stomach is narrow and
provides a much smaller reservoir for food. The procedure also changes the metabolism and hormones
produced by the intestines. These metabolic and hormonal changes result in an improvement in diabetes

Treating by surgeries using tissue engineering

Tissue engineering - transferring a patient’s own cells to a biological, or artificial,
tissue matrix - is progressing towards the development of new implants to repair or
replace damaged organs. 
As an example :
Professor Axel Haverich MD, introduced a technology developed by the Leibniz
Laboratories, at the Medical University Hanover, and first used two years ago to
treat oesophagus tumours. In that procedure, a piece of the small intestine is
removed from a deceased patient, then completely cleared of mucous membrane,
which uncovers the tissue, its collagen fibres and capillary vessels.
So that the function are prepared to such a level that the matrix can be implanted
into the recipient as viable tissue. The body’s own processes ensure that final
stability and full functions can be achieved.
Due to comprehensive colonisation with autologous cells the immune system does
not recognise the implant as foreign; the danger of rejection is avoided and
transmission of infections is ruled out.

Conclusion

Finally however this treatments and surgeries are successful ,you

have to take care of your health as possible . Especially if there
are genetic diseases in the family history . .

usually by healthy life style , as a diet and exercises and making

a fully medical checkup each six months at least .
