Does having a fatty liver makes me more prone to get sepsis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fatty liver.: I’m not aware of a direct correlation between fatty liver and sepsis. Having a fatty liver is not known to suppress the function of the immune system, and should not make you more prone to infections that would lead to sepsis.
