Abstract (2. Language): 
Although there is no liver disease being unique to advanced age, there are important differences in the clinical presentation, course and prognosis of liver diseases in older patients compared with younger patients. In this article, the alterations in the liver and the clinical features of liver diseases seen in the elderly were reviewed.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Yaşlılığa spesifik herhangi bir karaciğer hastalığı bulunmamasına karşın, daha genç hastalara kıyasla yaşlılarda karaciğer hastalıklarının ortaya çıkışı, hastalı- ğın seyri, kliniği ve prognozu açısından önemli farklılıklar ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu yazıda yaşlılıkta ortaya çıkan karaciğerle ilgili değişikliklerin yanı sıra karaciğer hastalıklarının klinik özellikleri incelenmiştir.
