We appreciate de Zegher and Ibanez calling attention to the association between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). As de Zegher and Ibanez rightly point out, NAFLD can occur in children and adolescents with PCOS, with the potential for development of advanced fibrosis in early adulthood.
