Risk factors for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease after gastrectomy for gastric cancer

Background Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) refers to hepatic steatosis caused by something other than alcoholic liver injury, and often occurs after gastrointestinal surgeries such as pancreatoduodenectomy and gastrectomy.

Summary:Background Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) refers to hepatic steatosis caused by something other than alcoholic liver injury, and often occurs after gastrointestinal surgeries such as pancreatoduodenectomy and gastrectomy. This study aimed to identify the risk factors for NAFLD after gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Methods A total of 721 patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer and plane abdominal computed tomography (CT) preoperatively and 1 year after surgery were included in this study. NAFLD was defined as having a mean hepatic CT attenuation value of
