| Abstrakt: |
The presence of marked hepatic steatosis in patients with high alcohol consumption was first described in 1836 by Addison et al.1 Many years later, in 1980, Ludwig and colleagues described a histological picture very similar to that seen in patients with alcoholic hepatitis but who did not consume alcohol, coining the term non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).2 In recent years, the terminology used to describe conditions related to hepatic steatosis has undergone significant evolution. In 2020, Eslam et al.3 subsequently modified it to MAFLD (Metabolic Associated Fatty Liver Disease) to better reflect its association with metabolic dysfunction, a nomenclature that, from the beginning, generated some reluctance due to the absence of clear international consensus. |
