CHRONIC HEPATITIS

is defined as

- diffuse inflammatory liver disease

- hepatocellular necro-inflammation

- continuing disease without improvement for - continuing disease without improvement for at least 6 months

can be caused by

- hepatotropic viruses

- autoimmune mechanisms

- hepatotoxic drugs and hepatotoxins

Hepatitic activity

- degree of necro-inflammation

- may wax and wane.

Severity of Chronic Hepatitis

Chronicity

- degree of fibrosis

- degree of disease progression from

onset to cirrhosis

- may progress or remain stationary.

Principle of grading & staging

� Lobular: Focal necrosis, Eosinophilic necrosis,

Confluent necrosis, Bridging necrosis arising

from THA

� Portal-periportal(>5 portal): portal-periportal

inflammation, Piecemeal necrosis, Bridging

necrosis arising from periportal area

� Staging: Fibrosis(periportal, porto-portal, porto-

terminal hepatic venule)

Grading of CH- Lobular activity

� None(score 0)

� Minimal(1): Sinusoidal lymphocytosis +/- 1 or

less necrosis per 10x objective field

Mild(2): 2~5 necrosis per 10x objective field� Mild(2): 2~5 necrosis per 10x objective field

� Moderate(3): 6~10 necrosis per 10x objective

� Severe(4): More than 10 necrosis per 10x

objective field or confluent necrosis (zone3)

Lobular Activity of

� Severe(4): PMN, around > 50% in most portal tracts /

septal surfaces, or bridging necrosis

Porto-periportal

Staging of chronic hepatitis

� No fibrosis(0): Normal connective tissue

� Portal fibrosis(1): Fibrous portal expansion

� Periportal fibrosis(2): Periportal fibrosis with short

septa extending into lobules or rare porto-portal septa septa extending into lobules or rare porto-portal septa

(intact architecture)

� Septal fibrosis(3): Fibrous septa reaching adjacent

portal tracts and terminal hepatic venules

(architectural distortion but no obvious cirrhosis)

� Cirrhosis(4): Diffuse nodular formation

Stage ofChronic Hepatitis

No fibrosis :Within normal limit

Portal fibrosis : Fibrous portal expansion

Periportal

Periportal fibrosis : Periportal fibrosis or rare porto-portal septa

Septal fibrosis : Fibrous septa with architectural distortion

Cirrhosis : Diffuse nodular formation
