Pathological features of NASH.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a term currently applied to accumulation of triglycerides in the liver which is observed microscopically as "macrovesicular" steatosis. The term applies to the full range of liver parenchymal injury from "simple steatosis" to "steatohepatitis" with or without fibrosis. This article discusses the full histopathologic spectrum of NAFLD. Additionally, the summary includes an historical overview as well as contemporary thoughts on the significance of the process(es). While largely focused on adult NAFLD, the manuscript also summarizes what has been reported to date for NAFLD in the pediatric population.

[Is non alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) part of the metabolic syndrome?].

The metabolic syndrome is one of the most common disease of our era that may cause numerous complications. There are some studies showing the need to take attention to the hepatic manifestation of the metabolic syndrome besides its already well-known consequences. In most of the cases there are histopathological evidences for the presence of fatty liver and mainly non alcoholic steatohepatitis. These conditions can lead to hepatic cirrhosis, hepatic failure or even to hepatocellular carcinoma. The risk of these consequences is the greater the more severe the metabolic syndrome is and the more components of it are included. All these emphasise the importance of examining the hepathological status of the patients suffering from the metabolic syndrome.
