[Changes in the composition of liver tissue and blood in liver steatosis].
The results of clinical and biochemical evaluation of liver steatosis are presented. The advantage of the quantitative determination of lipids in the liver tissue is underlined.

The concept is put forward that in the group of patients studied the increased supply of lipids to the liver prevails in the mechanism of development of steatosis.
