Abstract in Portuguese
Devido a controvérsias sobre a freqüência, diagnóstico e possibilidade de progressão para doença crônica da degeneração gordurosa do fígado em portadores de obesidade mórbida, planejou-se uma investigação retrospectiva em pacientes candidatos à cirurgia bariátrica. Foram analisados 60 indivíduos com indicação de gastroplastia com derivação intestinal em Y de Roux. Os pacientes foram submetidos a questionário clínico, provas bioquímicas e posteriormente, à biópsia hepática intraoperatória. A freqüência de EHNA e esteatose hepática foi elevada, e detectou-se 5% de cirrose. Na análise univariada houve correlação de diversos testes bioquímicos com as enzimas hepáticas. Na análise multivariada a albumina foi a variável determinante; apesar de seu debilitado valor preditivo. Nestas condições, apenas a avaliação histológica configura-se como critério definitivo para diagnóstico e acompanhamento desta população

Abstract in English
Because of controversies about frequency, diagnosis and possibility of progression toward chronic disease of fatty degeneration of the liver in morbidly obese patients, a retrospective study was done in patients who underwent bariatric surgery. Sixty individuals with indication for gastroplasty with Roux-en-Y jejunal bypass were enrolled. They were submitted to clinical questionnaire, biochemistry tests and subsequently, intraoperative liver biopsy. Frequency of NASH and steatosis was high, and 5.0% suffered from cirrhosis. In univariate analysis there was correlation between various biochemical measurements and liver enzymes. In multivariate analysis only serum albumin was a determinant variable, with low predictive value. The histological grading system remains the definitive criterion for diagnosis and follow-up of this population
