Fatty liver can lead to cirrhosis. Cirrhosis is a pathological process in which the liver is in a constant process of damage – repair – healing – re-damage due to the abnormal proliferation of connective tissue in the liver caused by various causes of liver damage. If the damage factors are not removed for a long time and the fibrotic process persists for a long time, it will develop into liver fibrosis or even cirrhosis. There are many clinical causes of liver fibrosis, including viral hepatitis, alcoholic liver, autoimmune liver disease, etc. Patients with fatty liver can lead to liver fibrosis if the causes of liver damage persist without active treatment.
