NON-ALCHOCOLIC FATTY LIVER DISEASE<br />
Kostovski A<br />
University Childrten Hospital Skopje<br />
Steatosis is characterized by accumulation of fat in hepatocytes.<br />
In adults it’s mostly caused by the alcoholic liver disease. Hepatic steatosis is a<br />
very rare condition in childhood. In pediatric patients hepatic steatosis is present<br />
in some metabolic diseases, after using some drugs, and more frequently in<br />
obese children. In obese children is known as Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease<br />
(NAFLD).<br />
In the introduction the main characteristics of the NAFLD in adults are given.<br />
After that the main pathophysiologic factors are presented. Among the others<br />
the main roles have insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia. Further on disturbances<br />
of the metabolism of glucose and lipids are explained (mobilization of<br />
free fatty acids ; decreased beta oxidation ; adipocytokines - TNF-α, adiponectin,<br />
resistin ; hypertrigliceridemia, leptin and genetic factors).<br />
Prevalence of NAFLD in childhood is disclosed in some epidemiologic studies,<br />
from different regions of the world.<br />
Some other metabolic and genetic diseases may also present NAFLD: Alström<br />
Syndrome, Bardet-Biedl Syndrome, Polycistic ovarial Syndrome, Turner Syndrome,<br />
Lypodistrophy, mulibery namism etc.<br />
Diagnostic approach and diferential diagnosis are discussed.<br />
Treatment is multidisciplinary with control of obesity and insulin resistance (with<br />
metformin, tiazolidinediones, ursodeoxycholic acid, Vit E) and diminishing of oxidative<br />
stress. Since the outcome may be severe and treatment may prove relatively<br />
ineffective, primary prevention of NAFLD should be a priority at pediatric<br />
age.<br />
