-Gender: Female -Poor Diet
-Family History -Socioeconomic Status
-Alcoholic Drinker for 35 years -Occupation
-Smoker for 17 years -Contact with Infected blood

virus

Increased liver synthesis of


triglycerides and fatty acids, Attacks Liver
reduction in oxidation of fatty
acids, and decreased release
of lipoprotein

Fat accumulation in the


parenchymal cells of the liver
and distention of cytoplasm
with fats

Liver Steatosis/Fatty Liver

Hepatocyte damage

Inflammation of the liver


(Hepatitis)

Alteration in Blood and Stimulates liver to produce Induction of Immune response


Lymph flow collagen

LIVER CIRRHOSIS

Vascular Compression Increase Arterial Loading

Increase resistance of blood Increase flow through hepatic


flow to the liver artery

Decrease blood flow to the Increase blood volume in


hepatic vein sinusoid and vein

Portal Congestion Congestion

PORTAL HYPERTENSION

Faulty protein synthesis


Increase pressure in capillary Hepatic Shunting
