NAFLD could be dealt with laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, preventing its progression into cirrhosis. SG can be performed in patients with obesity and metabolic syndrome, with NAFLD showing satisfactory results 12 months after surgery. NAFLD should be a formal indication for bariatric surgery.
The use of a laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y reconstruction through combined side-to-side linear stapler and hand-sewn esophagojejunal anastomosis seems to be a feasible and safe approach.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
