Résumé

The present study aims to describe the characteristics and long-term clinical outcomes of patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). A total of 1308 individuals with NAFLD were seen in the Liver Diseases Outpatient Clinic. Diagnosis of NAFLD in each case was based on biochemical, radiological and histological criteria, when available. After diagnosis, all NAFLD patients were administered a conventional diet and exercise program. The median follow-up period was 55.3 months. At the time of the diagnosis, the mean age was 50.8±11.3 years, and female gender was slightly predominant (51.4%). The median body mass index was 29.2±4.7 kg/m NAFLD is a potentially progressive disease. Diabetes and obesity were associated with the presence of advanced fibrosis.
