Abstract:
Typical alcoholic liver damage was found in 204 cases among 1,000 consecutive liver biopsies. Using the classification of Roschlau, 43.6% of the livers were stage II. Most alcoholic liver disease occurred in men and women in the fifth decade of life. The frequency of alcoholic hepatitis appeared to be greater in the higher stages. To determine the diagnostic value of different histologic changes, the frequency of several alterations was registered.
