Relevance. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a multidisciplinary problem and occupies a significant place among chronic non-communicable diseases (CNCDs). The main causes of death from this nosology are cardiovascular pathology and neoplasms. This article discusses the main problems of underestimation of diagnosis in patients with high cardiovascular risk of NAFLD. In particular, attention is paid to the risks of developing hepatocellular carcinoma without previous cirrhosis. The aim of the study was to describe a typical portrait of a patient with a very high cardiovascular risk (CVR) with NAFLD and the features of the prevention of hepatocellular carcinoma (HC) in this category of patients. Research materials. The case history of a patient with stage 3 arterial hypertension, functional class II (FC) angina pectoris, postinfarction cardiosclerosis in combination with NAFLD in the stage of liver steatosis, stage 1 obesity, and impaired carbohydrate tolerance is presented. Results. Against the background of corrected antihypertensive therapy, blood pressure and heart rate returned to normal. The level of transaminases approached the reference values, there was a tendency to reduce total cholesterol, low density lipoproteins, triglycerides. According to volumetric sphygmography, vascular age began to approach the passport age, the augmentation index became within negative values, the ankle-brachial index remained unchanged, and an increase in endothelial function was observed. Conclusion. This clinical case provides an example of successful treatment of NAFLD and dyslipidaemia in a patient with very high CV risk. With this in mind, it is necessary to timely use drugs that directly affect the stages of the formation and progression of NAFLD, which should be actively prescribed for the prevention of GC.
