Background Bariatric surgery (BS) was recognized as the only treatment for morbid obesity in adolescents. Classic surgical procedures are based on mechanical restriction and/or malabsorption, resulting in a large number of possible complications and demanding lifelong medical attention. A novel BS design, the Santoro III procedure, relies on modify...

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a morbid condition highly related to obesity. It is unclear if the macroscopic liver appearance correlates with the histopathologic findings. The goal of this prospective study was to determine the relationship between the intraoperative liver appearance and the histopathologic diagnosis of NASH in morbidly ob...
