Abstract

: Due to the increasing global prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which is closely linked to metabolic disorders, there has been a rise in the number of patients with NAFLD undergoing hepatectomy. The metabolic disorders, as well as NAFLD, increase venous thrombotic risk. NAFLD was recently updated to a new concept of hepatic steatosis: metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). We aimed to investigate the impact of MASLD on post-hepatectomy portal vein thrombosis (PH-PVT).
