OK ...sorry my bad...was too late last night !!!!
Here is the answer: Alcoholic fatty change represents the intracytoplasmic accumulation of triglyceride (neutral fats). At the beginning, the hepatocytes present small fat vacuoles (liposomes) around the nucleus - microvesicular fatty change. In the late stages, the size of the vacuoles increases pushing the nucleus to the periphery of the cell - macrovesicular fatty change. Microvesicular steatosis is typical of Reye's syndrome, problem pregnancies, mitochondrial problems, and toxicity from outdated-tetracycline poisoning. hOPE YOU will forgive me for my mistake. thanks! |
