All flesh and vegetable substances contain more or less fats which are not transported into the body to be deposited there unchanged. On the contrary they are altered and used up in the processes of digestion and nutrition; while the fats which appear in the body are in great part of new formation, produced from materials derived from a variety of sources.
Fatty liver rarely if ever occurs as an independent affection and its importance as relates to disease has never been determined. The presence of fats in an abnormal quantity, in the secreting cells of the liver, might by their presence seriously interfere with circulation, and might in extreme cases be sufficient to obstruct the bile and occasion slight jaundice.
The cause of the disease under consideration is no doubt largely influenced by fatty food, conjoined with insufficient exercise; the method of the accumulation of oily matters in the liver being much the same as in the production of the "foie gras" of geese.
Insufficient material for the study of the disease when it occurs independently of other affections leaves but an imperfect knowledge of the symptoms.
