Original article title
Cirrhosis Regression After Metabolic Bariatric Surgery in Patients With Compensated MASH Cirrhosis: A Long-term Paired Biopsy Study.
Takeaway
In 30 selected patients with compensated MASH cirrhosis and paired biopsies, one-third showed cirrhosis regression after bariatric surgery using standard staging. The retrospective findings suggest potential reversibility, but do not establish causation or applicability to decompensated cirrhosis.
Keep in mind
Small retrospective paired-biopsy study.
