Abstract

Hepatic steatosis is a phenomenon that is often objectified in imaging tests that, if there is no analytical alteration of the hepatic profile, does not need further follow-up. It can be caused by chemotherapy treatment, so in oncological patients should be monitored more closely. We present the case of a patient treated with capecitabine who, once the treatment was finished, began to increase bilirubin and transaminases, showing an increased diffuse hepatic steatosis in an MRI
