VISION Invited lecture - Bariatric surgery and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Recording and presentation of the invited lecture that took place online on 16 June 2021 - Pantelis Antonakis, MD, PhD - Bariatric surgery and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Bariatric surgery is a documented solution for morbid obesity. Additionally to excess weight loss, significant improvement in comorbidities is an established benefit after bariatric operations. In recent years, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has emerged as one of these comorbidities. Herein we will review the data supporting the positive effect of bariatric surgery in patients with NAFLD.
