Abstract

Having briefly analyzed the metabolism of ethanol in elderly subjects and the evidence of great resistance of the senile liver to alcohol-induced damage, the Author describes histological, clinical, biohumoral features of fibrosis and the necessary therapeutic measures. Eighty clinical cases of hepatic fibrosis are also illustrated, studied and observed during five years.
