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
Grade
Chronicity
- degree of fibrosis
- degree of disease progression from
onset to cirrhosis
- may progress or remain stationary.
