Overview
Surgery is not the first-line treatment option for patients with non- Alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, gastric bypass surgery is recommended in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease whose BMI is greater than 35 particularly in those without improvement in imaging-detected hepatic steatosis or fibrosis after behavioral modification or medication therapy.
Surgery
Indications
- Patients with NAFLD and BMI greater than 35 who psychologically stable[1]
- In patients who failed medical therapy.
Surgical options
- The most common procedures are adjustable gastric banding and the Roux-en-Y bypass.[2]
- A Y-shaped section of the i bum is attached to the pouch so that food bypasses the duodenum and proximal section of the jejunum.
- A laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy may be a secure and powerful treatment of weight problems in adult patients. Significant and sustained weight reduction results in the improvement NAFLD.[3][4]
- The size of the stomach is reduced either by stapling or banding, creating a small pouch, assisting with weight loss by inducing
- Earlier satiety
- Reducing caloric intake
- Decreasing absorptive capacity
- The feasibility of liver transplantation depends on the stage of NAFLD at diagnosis.NAFLD is emerging as the second most common cause for liver transplant.[5][6]
- Indication 1 End stage liver-disease
- Indication 2 Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are the two most important indications for the liver transplant.
- Outcome : After liver transplanation patients with or without NASH may survive 1,3 and 5 years and are increasinly at risk for cardio vascular risks.[7]
Complications
- Early complications include:
- Late complications include
