Hi, yes I had a fatty liver and enlarged spleen. I was told that spleen takes over some of the functions of the liver. Mine is still enlarged after transplant I occasionally get pain from it.Hilary

Yes had my transplant due to fatty liver, NASH cirrhosis, nobody worried about my spleen pre or post transplant, I don't think it causes a problemHilary

I have non alcoholic fatty liver. I have had it for at least 10 years. It hasn’t changed in all that time. I am slightly overweight and drink within the government guidelines. I attribute it to metabolic syndrome and having had anorexia as a teen
