Core Tip |
The rising obesity problem is also associated with increased incidence of simultaneous obesity and cirrhosis. This is a particularly difficult subset of obese patients to treat as there is difficulty in implementation of lifestyle measures, limited data on safety of anti-obesity drugs and high risk of surgery. In present review, we briefly discuss various modalities of weight reduction in obese patients and their applicability in patients with cirrhosis.
