TAILIEUCHUNG - Fatty Liver Disease: NASH and Related Disorders

This chapter introduces the history, definitional and semantic issues, spectrum and general importance of non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD). Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a form of metabolic liver disease in which fatty change (steatosis) is associated with lobular inflammation, hepatocyte injury and/or hepatic fibrosis. It comprises a pathogenic link in the chain of NAFLD that extends from bland steatosis to some cases of ‘cryptogenic cirrhosis’. | Fatty Liver Disease NASH and Related Disorders Fatty Liver Disease NASH and Related Disorders Edited by Geoffrey C.
