Abstract

Hepatic fibrosis is a common pathological process in the development of various chronic liver diseases into liver cirrhosis. Based on current research findings, it is widely believed that the process of hepatic fibrosis is reversible, and effective treatment cannot only delay the development of hepatic fibrosis into liver cirrhosis, but also alleviate the degree of hepatic fibrosis. Therefore, the research on the treatment of hepatic fibrosis is of great clinical significance. The article reviews the recent research advances in the treatment of hepatic fibrosis.

肝纤维化是多种慢性肝病向肝硬化发展的共同病理学过程。根据现有的研究结果,普遍认为肝纤维化的过程是可逆的,适当有效的治疗不仅可减缓其向肝硬化的发展,甚至可减轻已有的肝纤维化程度。因此,对肝纤维化治疗的研究具有重要的临床意义。现就近期肝纤维化的主要治疗进展进行总结。.
