| Abstract |
Advanced liver disease is associated with increased risk for postoperative complications. It is not well known whether the presence of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in morbidly obese patients contributes to the rate of postoperative complications. The main objective was to study the association between NASH and postoperative complications in bariatric patients. |
