4 Approach to Liver Histology Review slide as unknown Bias is too powerful if clinical info known
5 Approach to Liver Histology Review slide as unknown Bias is too powerful if clinical info known Rules of liver pathology (Dr. Ken Batts) 1) You re a fool if you look at the history before the slides.
6 Approach to Liver Histology Review slide as unknown Bias is too powerful if clinical info known Rules of liver pathology 1) You re a fool if you look at the history before the slides. 2) You re a damned fool if you sign out the case without the clinical history.
7 Approach to Liver Histology Review slide as unknown Bias is too powerful if clinical info known Rules of liver pathology 1) You re a fool if you look at the history before the slides. 2) You re a damned fool if you sign out the case without the clinical history. Ultimately the diagnosis is histology + clinical

9 Approach to Liver Histology Step 1: Hepatitic v. Biliary Can be complex Hepatitic - intact ducts; necroinflammatory hepatocellular damage Step 2: Acute v. Chronic -- key decision point Acute: broad DDx (not hopeless!) Chronic: manageable DDX Fibrosis
10 Algorithm for Liver Histology Chronic liver disease - short DDx Hepatitis Biliary Hepatitis B & C Primary biliary cirrhosis Autoimmune Primary sclerosing (PSC) Steatohepatitis Secondary sclerosing Hemochromatosis Autoimmune cholangitis Alpha-1 antitrypsin Idiopathic ductopenia Wilson s disease
11 Algorithm for Liver Histology Chronic liver disease - short DDx Hepatitis Biliary Hepatitis B & C Primary biliary cirrhosis Autoimmune Primary sclerosing (PSC) Steatohepatitis Secondary sclerosing Hemochromatosis Autoimmune cholangitis Alpha-1 antitrypsin Idiopathic ductopenia Wilson s disease

18 Boom in NAFLD Parallels epidemiology of obesity Obesity => insulin resistance Speculation, other factors in food supply Trans fats High fructose corn syrup Animal models
19 Clinical Importance NAFLD affects 25-40% of adult Americans 10-30% NAFLD => Progressive NASH 2-10% of overweight individuals => NASH Aging population in increasingly obese society
20 Steatosis / Steatohepatitis Distinctive histologic pattern of liver disease Multiple etiologies Alcoholic Nonalcoholic (obesity, insulin resistance) Amiodarone Usually clinically apparent Significant histologic overlap (more to come)
