Reversibility of severe hepatic damage caused by jejunoileal bypass after re-establishment of normal intestinal continuity

M T Soyer et al. Surgery. 1976 May.

Abstract

This case report attempts to document the reversibility of advanced hepatic anatomical and clinical alterations compatible with advanced hepatic cirrhosis that occasionally develop in patients with jejunoileal bypass performed for morbid obesity. The advanced stage of this complication can be fatal unless the intestinal continuity is returned to normal.
