Title: Structural alterations of liver parenchyma induced by anabolic steroids. Author: Stang-Voss C, Appell HJ. Journal: Int J Sports Med; 1981 May; 2(2):101-5. PubMed ID: 7333738. Abstract: The long-term effects of an anabolic steroid (Dianabol) an the liver of motor-active mice was investigated. The pathologic changes occurring are due to cholestasis, peliosis hepatis, and diffuse hepatitis. It was assumed that a pathogenic relationship between cholestasis, peliosis, and cirrhosis exists. Neoplasms seldom occurred, but it was suggested that anabolic steroids do not primarily induce the formation of liver tumors.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
