VGM Hospital Chairman Dr.V.G.Mohan Prasad was invited as a guest speaker at APICON2020 - the National Annual Conference for Physicians. This conference was attended by over 4000 delegates.

 

Dr.V.G.Mohan Prasad spoke on NAFLD - Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease : Tip of the Iceberg

 

Dr.VGM discussed the increasing incidence of this Liver disease and how clinicians should be wary and alert in identifying this liver disease at its early stage and discussed clinical strategies of management practised at VGM hospital based on International guidelines.

 

Alcohol need not be the only cause for fatty liver, even the teetotaller is prone for this condition.

 

Lack of early identification leads to irreversible liver damage called cirrhosis, which needs liver transplant.
