The pathology of disease

Liver fibrosis is wound-healing scarring from chronic liver injury (HBV/HCV/alcohol/NAFLD/autoimmune), reversible at early stages, progresses to cirrhosis. Treatment: treat underlying cause (HBV/HCV antivirals; abstinence; weight/diabetes control; immunosuppression); monitor fibrosis stage (elastography/biopsy); screen for hepatocellular carcinoma if cirrhosis; avoid hepatotoxins; nutritional support; follow-up to confirm regression.

Common Symptoms

Asymptomatic; elevated transaminases; by chronic liver injury

Causes and Pathogenesis

Chronic injury activates stellate cells causing collagen deposition/fibrosis.

Treatment

Treat cause; monitor fibrosis; screen HCC if cirrhosis

Preventive Measures

Vaccination; limit alcohol; weight control; avoid hepatotoxins.
