Q

a. ) Postnecrotic types
b. ) Primary biliary types
c. ) Alcoholic liver disease
d. ) Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)

A

Alcoholic Liver Disease (Laennec Cirrhosis)

Cirrhosis

Nodules of normal hepatocytes surrounded by fibrosis.

Damage / death of hepatocytes →

  1. Cell regeneration → nodules of functional hepatocytes +
  2. Scar tissue formation
    • replaces functional liver cells → liver failure
    • distorts liver structure, obstructs flow in vascular and biliary channels (kinks)

Assessment Findings:

  1. inflammation
    • Abdominal, right upper quadrant pain, hepatomegaly.
  2. Portal hypertension
    • Ascites, edema, dyspnea, anemia.
  3. Liver failure
    • End Stage Liver Disease
      • Anorexia, Steatorrhea
      • Vitamin A deficiency = vision problems.
      • Vitamin D deficiency = weak bones, hypocalcemia.
      • Vitamin K deficiency = no clotting factors (bleeding).
    • High or low glucose levels.
    • Liver is not making albumin → causes edema.
    • Bleeding tendencies.
    • Hepatic encephalopathy → Asterixis
    • Seizures / Coma (Hepatocoma).
    • Drug toxicities
    • Hormone imbalances
    • Sepsis (unfiltered blood)
    • Hepatorenal failure

P/C Factors:

  • Postnecrotic Types:
    • Viral hepatitis
    • Exposure to toxic drugs / chemicals
  • Primary Biliary Types:
    • Autoimmune attack on small bile ducts → inflammation / damage to hepatocytes from leakage of bile.
  • Alcoholic Liver Disease (Laennec Cirrhosis)
    • Increased alcohol consumption (metabolites of alcohol can damage liver cells), plus other genetic / environmental factors.
  • Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
    • ​Changes in uptake/synthesis/break down of hepatic lipids (due to obesity, insulin resistance, hyperlipidemia, etc.) cause fatty changes in liver cells, and impairs ability to detoxify free radicals → damage to hepatocytes.
