Comparative risk of postoperative complications after total shoulder arthroplasty in patients with non-alcoholic cirrhosis versus NAFLD: A matched national cohort study
Patients with NAC undergoing TSA are at increased risk for postoperative complications compared to those with NAFLD. Although NAFLD patients had fewer adverse outcomes, they exhibited elevated thromboembolic risk at one year. Tailored perioperative strategies to liver disease subtype patients are needed to help mitigate postoperative complications in this vulnerable population.
