Abstract
Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is the main condition of altered liver enzymes worldwide. With a constant increase in liver hospitalizations, MAFLD is the second cause of cirrhosis and soon will be the first cause of liver transplantation. Early recognition of MAFLD and a personalized approach are essential to its treatment. This case study presents personalized management of a patient with MAFLD with advanced fibrosis and severe steatosis. The impact of silymarin use, concomitant treatment with diet, exercise, insulin sensitizers and antifibrotic agents, was evaluated. This article is part of the Current clinical use of silymarin in the treatment of toxic liver diseases: a case series Special Issue: https://www.drugsincontext.com/special_issues/current-clinical-use-of-silymarin-in-the-treatment-of-toxic-liver-diseases-a-case-series.
