Brief summary
Find out how bariatric endoscopy will influence the clinical course of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Detailed description
The study will test and investigate the impact of bariatric endoscopy (various types of intragastric balloons, endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty, aspiration therapy) on components of the metabolic syndrome in obese patients, especially on influencing non-alcoholic steatosis and steatohepatitis and signs of liver fibrotization and weight reduction. The method consists of performing a mini-invasive endoscopic procedure and, as a result, reduced food intake.
Interventions
bariatric endoscopy, mainly intragastric balloons, plication of the stomach too
