Book Description

Expert medical advice from a hospital that has pioneered treatments for liver diseases
More than 25 million people face some type of liver disorder each year. And yet the liver is one of the most important organs in the body.
In The Cleveland Clinic Guide to Liver Disorders, Dr. Nizar N. Zein and nurse Kevin M. Edwards, health experts on the forefront of liver health, provide critical, potentially life-saving information readers need to fight these diseases. This important resource gives readers the cutting-edge medical guidance this physician-nurse team offers its patients, including:
Information about what the liver does—and what happens when the liver becomes fatty or hardened with scars;
The latest research on treating liver infections, fighting liver cancer, and keeping your liver healthy for many years to come;
Key information on the symptoms that result from a liver malfunction;
Personal stories of those who have triumphed over liver disorders;
Plus, advice on how to make the necessary lifestyle choices to live an active and healthy life.
Cleveland Clinic is one of the nation’s best hospitals and is top-ranked for digestive diseases, where physicians have pioneered many treatments for liver diseases.
