Abstract

Alcoholic liver disease represents a spectrum of liver injuries from fatty liver, steatohepatitis, fibrosis and cirrhosis to hepatocellular carcinoma. Progression of the disease depends on the amount of alcohol consumption and risk factors or comorbidities, e.g., genetic predisposition, female susceptibility, diet, smoking, obesity, viral infection. Patients with alcoholic liver disease have two pathologies to be diagnosed and treated: the liver disease per se, and the harmful, excessive alcohol consumption (alcohol use disorder) or even dependence. The early diagnosis is important for both conditions and for achieving abstinence. For the diagnosis, there are several biomarkers and non-invasive tests, including psychological tools. To maintain abstinence, pharmacological and non pharmacological interventions can be applied. Concerning the liver disease, the main aims of treatment are to decrease inflammation and oxidative stress, to inhibit cell injury and fibrosis, to modulate liver-gut axis and to support regeneration. Management of patients with alcoholic hepatitis and cirrhosis often needs a psychological support, delivered by a multidisciplinary integrated care model, a close cooperation between addiction experts and hepatologists. Patients with severe alcoholic hepatitis not responding to medical (corticosteroid) therapy should be carefully selected and considered for early liver transplantation.
