• Accumulation of cholesterol and cholesterol esters.

• Manifestation of metabolic derangement
• Accumulation may be transient & reversible or permanent. Effects: range from harmless to toxic
FATTY CHANGE
• Steatosis
• Fatty metamorphosis

• Common in liver
• Can occur in heart, skeletal muscle and kidneys.
CAUSES
• ALCHOL ABUSE
• - Diabetes mellitus
• - Obesity
• - Protien Malnutrion (starvation)
• -Drugs/toxins
• -Anoxia/Hypoxia
• -Pregnancy
