Özet

Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has a high prevalence among patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). Although liver biopsy is the gold standard for assessing histopathologic changes in the liver, it is an invasive procedure. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of sleeve gastrectomy on liver enzymes, fibrosis and steatosis scores; ultrasonographic findings; biochemical parameters; and anthropometric measurements in morbidly obese patients with NAFLD.
