Summary:
Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a type of liver disease characterized by the accumulation of fat in the liver, inflammation, and damage to liver cells. NASH is considered a more severe form of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and can progress to cirrhosis, liver failure, and liver cancer if left untreated.
NASH is typically seen in people who have risk factors such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. However, it can also occur in people who do not have any of these risk factors.
