Fatty liver disease and cirrhosis of the liver.

Description
The liver on the left is normal. The liver in the center shows fatty liver disease, which is common in alcoholics because the sugar in alcohol is converted to triglycerides (fats) and stored in the liver. Diabetes mellitus and lipid (fat) disorders also cause this yellow, fatty appearance. The liver on the right shows cirrhosis. It is deformed with nodules and scar tissue that affect liver function.
