Abstract

The alterations in the lipid composition of the erythrocyte membrane in patients with hepatic disease are reversible as hepatic function improves. Improvement in the lipid pattern appears to follow more closely the improvement of liver function than the changes in the plasma lipids in the 5 patients described. Morphologic alterations of erythrocytes with changes in the membrane lipids are noted; these too are reversible as liver function improves.
