Natural History
Complications
Up to 10% of cirrhotic alcoholic FLD will develop hepatocellular carcinoma. Overall incidence of liver cancer in non-alcoholic FLD has not been assessed yet but the association is well established.[1]
A retrospective cohort study concluded that liver failure is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in NASH-associated cirrhosis. The prognosis is either similar or less severe than HCV-cirrhosis.[2]
Prognosis
Prognosis can be determined by:
- FIB-4
- Liver stiffness measurement
- Vibration-controlled elastography (VCTE), Fibroscan
- Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE)
