Abstract

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is now the commonest liver pathology in the UK; however, relatively little is known about its course in pregnancy or the effect it has on maternal or fetal outcomes. Described here is a 24-year-old woman in her first pregnancy who presented with non-specific symptoms and raised alanine aminotransferase with ultrasonography of her liver showing changes of steatosis and suspicious for cirrhosis, leading to a diagnosis of NAFLD. The case illustrates the need for the clinician to have awareness of this increasingly prevalent condition and for multidisciplinary management.
