Abstract
Currently, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has taken a leading position in the structure of chronic liver diseases, making up 71.6% of their total number. Its prevalence is increasing, including among young people. The article describes a clinical case of the development of an early stage of NAFLD - non-alcoholic liver steatosis in a 28-year-old patient. The leading role of lifestyle modification in the complex therapy of NAFLD is noted. Positive clinical results with the use of the drug ursodeoxycholic acid are described. Identification of steatosis during ultrasound examination of the abdominal cavity requires clarification of its origin. In the absence of other possible causes and risk factors, the diagnosis of NAFLD becomes the most likely. The presented case demonstrates a favorable course of NAFLD, when a patient’s high motivation, combination of non-drug and medicinal methods allow to achieve good results.
