Fatty Liver

Overview

Fatty liver, also known as hepatic steatosis, is a condition where excess fat accumulates in the liver cells. This buildup can lead to liver inflammation and potentially progress to more severe conditions like liver cirrhosis or liver cancer.

Fatty Liver
Causes
  • Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD): Associated with obesity, insulin resistance, and metabolic syndrome.
  • Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: Caused by excessive alcohol consumption over time.
Symptoms
  • Often asymptomatic in early stages
  • Fatigue or weakness
  • Abdominal discomfort or pain in the upper right side
Diagnosis
  • Liver Function Tests: Blood tests to assess liver enzymes and function
  • Imaging Studies: Ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI to detect fat accumulation in the liver
  • Liver Biopsy: Sometimes necessary to confirm the diagnosis and assess liver damage
Treatment
  • Lifestyle Changes: Weight loss through diet and exercise
  • Management of Underlying Conditions: Control of diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia
  • Medications: Sometimes prescribed to manage underlying metabolic conditions
