Question:

What are all the liver consequences of alcoholism?

Author: H K



Answer:

90-100% of time leads to steatosis (fatty liver) which may lead to cirrhosis if no alcohol abstaining. Can also lead to acute hepatitis where frequent repeated attacks may also lead to cirrhosis. Acute hepatitis and steatosis are reversible (by abstaining from alcohol) while cirrhosis isn't (unless in very early stages)
