Radiology, 1968Hepatic malignant tumor is suspect in an alcoholic who shows progressive physical deterioration and poor response to medical therapy. Cirrhosis serves as a substrate for approximately 75 per cent of hepatocellular carcinoma (1). There are no reliable signs or symptoms or liver function studies, however, which differentiate cirrhosis with acute ...

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2001
Alcoholic hepatitis is a multisystem disease seen in individuals who chronically abuse alcohol. When severe, it is associated with a very high mortality rate, with nearly 50% of severely affected persons dying within 1 month of hospitalization. Primary therapy is complete alcohol abstinence and supportive care.

Alcohol abuse and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection coexist with chronic liver disease in many patients. The mechanism of injury in these patients is probably multifactorial and involves, but is not limited to, a combination of diminished immune clearance of HCV, oxidative stress, emergence of HCV quasi-species, hepatic steatosis, increased iron stores,

Medical Journal of Australia, 2007
Although early studies of hepatitis C indicated this is a serious disease, more recent evidence shows it can be relatively benign. A major determinant of hepatitis C prognosis is alcohol consumption. Promotion of alcohol abstinence among people with hepatitis C could result in substantial reductions in morbidity, mortality and treatment costs.
