Introduction
Both acute and chronic liver disease can manifest on the skin. The appearances can range from the very subtle, such as early finger clubbing, to the more obvious such as jaundice. Identifying these changes early on can lead to prompt diagnosis and management of the underlying condition. In this pictorial review we will describe the skin manifestations of specific liver conditions illustrated with appropriate figures.
