美国一名男子通过外科手术减肥成功

  Patrick Deuel, who once weighed more than 1,000 pounds, has lost another 81 pounds in a surgery that removed a mass of fat and skin hanging from his midsection.

  "He's doing well," said Dr. Fred Harris, who performed the surgery Tuesday.

  The mass, called a pannus, made it difficult for Deuel, 43, of Valentine, Neb., to walk.

  Surgery to remove it had been scheduled for January, but the procedure was postponed when Deuel got the flu.

  With the surgery, Deuel now weighs about 400 pounds.

  He could lose even more through exercise, said Harris.

  "But if Patrick never lost another pound, I'd be a happy camper," Harris said.

  When Deuel came to Sioux Falls for gastric bypass surgery in 2004, he weighed 1,072 pounds. He was so large his bedroom wall had to be cut out to extract him from his home. He was rushed to the hospital in an ambulance with extra-wide doors and a ramp-and-winch system that had to be dispatched from Denver.

  Gastric bypass surgery, a stomach stapling procedure, was thought to be his best chance for permanent weight loss.

  近日,美国一名男子通过外科手术减肥成功。该男子此前的体重曾一度超过1000磅(约合900斤),但现在已降为400磅(360斤)左右。

  据美联社3月9日报道,这名男子名叫帕特里克-德尔,现年43岁。2004年,德尔来到南达科他州苏族瀑布市的一家医院进行外科手术减肥,当时他的体重达到1072磅(约合965斤)。由于德尔的体形过于庞大,人们只能将其卧室的墙壁打破后才把他抬了出来,而运送他的救护车也是特殊的宽门救护车。

  近日进行的手术使德尔又成功减掉81磅(约合73斤),目前,他的体重已降至400磅(约合360斤)。此次手术切除了悬挂在德尔上腹部的一个脂肪大肿块。这种肿块在医学上被称作血管翳,它的存在让德尔行走非常困难。今年1月,医生决定通过外科手术将肿块切除,但由于德尔患上流感而使手术延期。

  主治医生哈里斯说:“德尔配合得很好。”医生指出,只要加强锻炼,德尔还可以减去更多的体重。(文/蒋黎黎)
