Abstract
Lipogranulomas from severe fatty livers due to alcoholism, diabetes or overweight were examined in the electron microscope. When a fat droplet protrudes through the cell membrane of a liver cell histiocytes and lymphocytes settle around it, and a lipogranuloma is formed. Remnants of the liver cell may be seen between the fat droplet and the histiocytes. It is confirmed that the fat droplets are situated extracellularly in the fully developed lipogranulomas.Keywords
