Abstract:
Objective To summarize the pathological features of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)in China based on a histological scoring system for NAFLD designed by the Pathology Committee of NASH Clinical Research Network(NASH-CRN).Methods The specimens of liver needle biopsy from 130 patients with NAFLD were examined with light microscopy after haematoxylin eosin,reticular fiber,and Masson trichrome staining.Immunohistochemistry staining of the sections,combined with clinical data,was used to exclude non-NAFLD cases.Results Hepatic steatosis,lobular inflammation,hepatocyte ballooning and fibrosis existed extensively in 130 cases NAFLD liver tissues.Furthermore,macrovesicular steatosis predominantly located in acinar zone 3 was the main pathological feature of NAFLD,and lobular inflammation was usually mild.Hepatocyte ballooning was observed in 94.6 percent of 130 cases.Mild perisinusoidal fibrosis and periportal fibrosis were often observed in stage 1.According to the statistic analysis,hepatic steatosis was positively correlated with lobular inflammation,hepatocyte ballooning and fibrosis(r=0.587,0.488,0.374,respectively;all P value
