Resumo

The polycystic ovary syndrome (POS) is the most frequent endocrinopathy among women in reproductive age.It represents a spectrum of clinical presentations and associates with obesity, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome and persistent low-grade inflammation.It is frequently associated with other metabolic diseases.Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is considered the hepatic manifestation of the metabolic syndrome.It is also a part of many metabolic dysfunctions and, therefore, it is related to the POS.The following paper aims to review both entities by correlating them.
