Non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD)  disease may be classified based on clinical presentation into non-alcoholic fatty liver and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.

==Clinical Classification==
* Based on histology it is classified into the non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).

Overview

Non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD) disease may be classified based on clinical presentation into non-alcoholic fatty liver and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.

Clinical Classification

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease may be classified based on clinical presentation into non-alcoholic fatty liver and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.[1][2][3]

Based on clinical presentation
Non-alcoholic fatty liver Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis
  • Benign
  • Aggressive
  • Non-progressive
Based on Etiology
  • Primary NAFLD
  • If the cause of the liver disease was unknown.
  • Secondary NAFLD

Histopathological classification

Histological classification of NAFLD includes grading and staging.

  • Grade: Depending on degree of steatosis and necro-inflammatory activity
  • Stage: Depending on degree of fibrosis.

Grading

NAFLD activity score is employed for grading steatohepatitis of NASH. NAS represents the sum of scores for steatosis, lobular inflammation, and ballooning.[4]

Component Range Score
Steatosis <5% 0
5-33% 1
34-66% 2
>66% 3
Lobular Inflammation None 0
<2 focci 1
2-4 2
>4 3
Hepatocyte -Balloning None 0
Few ballooned cells 1
Many ballooned cells 2
Interpretation 0-2 Non-diagnostic
3-4 Borderline
5-8 Diagnostic

Staging

Based on the degree of fibrosis on biopsy non-alochoic fatty liver disease can be classified into 4 stages.

Staging
Stage 1

Zone 3 fibrosis
Perisinusoidal fibrosis
Portal/ periportal fibrosis

Stage 2 Perisinusoidal and portal/periportal fibrosis
Stage 3 Bridging fibrosis
Stage 4 Cirrhosis
