Intrahepatic fatty infiltration and fatty liver are two different ways of describing a disease, so it is not possible to compare the severity of the two.
Generally speaking, intrahepatic fatty infiltration is a description of the phenomenon of fat infiltration and deposition in liver cells found in pathological sections, and is usually categorized as mild, moderate or severe according to the degree of intrahepatic fatty infiltration.
Fatty liver refers to the replacement of normal liver tissue by adipocytes and adipose tissue, which in turn leads to the phenomenon of intrahepatic fat infiltration, which is usually reflected in the ultrasound or CT examination report. Depending on the severity it can also generally be categorized as mild fatty liver, moderate fatty liver, and severe fatty liver.
Intrahepatic fatty infiltration and fatty liver can be mild or severe. If the patient does not have abnormal liver function, elevated blood lipids and corresponding clinical symptoms, the patient’s daily life can be improved by adjusting the diet, avoiding fatty foods such as animal liver, and actively engaging in physical exercise. If there is no relief for a long period of time or the weight continues to increase, it is important to go to the hospital for systematic evaluation, choose a suitable treatment plan for yourself, and treat the symptoms.
