Visceral adiposity as a risk factor for lean non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease in potential living liver donors

Visceral adiposity as a risk factor for lean non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease in potential living liver donors

Background and Aim This study aimed to investigate the relationship between hepatic steatosis (HS) evaluated by biopsy and visceral adiposity assessed by computed tomography in lean living liver donor candidates and to determine the risk factors for lean non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Me...
