Abstract

A long-term follow-up study used sequential liver biopsy specimens to evaluate fibrosis and signs of steatohepatitis in a large number of severely obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery, and found that bariatric surgery reduces steatosis in most patients. There are some important lessons to be learnt from the findings of this study and some unanswered questions for further investigation.
