ABSTRACT
Liver is the site of many diseases, many of which become symptomatic while some are diagnosed only on autopsy. A wide spectrum of primary as well as secondary diseases can affect the liver. Involvement of liver is secondary to cardiac, metabolic and social problems like alcoholism. The aim of the study was to study spectrum of histopathological lesions encountered in liver autopsy. In this autopsy study of 150 cases of liver specimens, fatty change, chronic venous congestion, portal triaditis and cirrhosis were the main findings and metastasis to liver was reported in two cases.
Key words: Liver pathology, autopsy.
