About SASLT

Liver Experts within KSA used to share their knowledge and present their clinical research data locally through various activities of the Saudi Gastroenterology Association that existed since 1988. With the continuous expansion of the field, it was obvious that an independent association for the liver diseases is warranted. Though this idea was flourishing in the mind of many for some time, it was not until recently that it became a reality. Several meetings and stringent discussions between many involved doctors have worked to bring this option to a reality and consulted several others to consider all relevant ideas. Finally, these efforts have reached to the stage of declaring the Saudi Association for the Study of Liver Diseases & Transplantation under the umbrella of the Saudi Council of Health Specialties, after fulfilling all required regulations.

Welcome To SASLT

Dear Colleague,

Warm welcome to all of you visitors of the official website of the Saudi Association for the Study of Liver Diseases and Transplantation.

Liver Diseases are prevalent in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia just like any other country in the region. Chronic Viral Hepatitis with its usual complications frequently takes the focus of interest, however, there are other diseases encountered and rising in prevalence e.g. Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH).

Scientific knowledge and clinical research about liver diseases in the Kingdom dates back to the eighties and have several historical landmarks.

Hence, this welcoming remark is directed to all of you as an open invitation to share with us the responsibilities and to communicate with us your valuable suggestions & opinions, and to participate actively in the different activities of SASLT as illustrated in this website.

SASLT Executive Dr. Faisal Aba Alkhail
