Core Tip	The prevalence of chronic liver disease is increasing. Patients with liver cirrhosis may be more likely to need non-hepatic abdominal surgery than the non-cirrhotic population. The rising incidence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis may increase the prevalence of cirrhotic patients within the abdominal surgery population. The pathophysiological characteristics of the condition raise the surgical risk and the likelihood of poor prognosis. A review of the assessment and outcomes for non-hepatic abdominal procedures in these patients is essential since most current recommendations are based on observational studies.
