Principally this pathology affects the intracellular fat in hepatocytes, but the kidney and the heart can also be involved in [[Cellular Fatty Change|cellular fatty changes]]. These organs are susceptible as they are involved in the metabolism of fat, or are dependant upon lipids as an energy source.
