Abstract: MASLD (Metabolic Dysfunction Associated Steatotic Liver Disease) is a recently clarified clinical entity, which we consider very useful for the management of this kind of patients in primary care. We describe a case diagnosed as a result of the setup and development of an urban ultrasound point of care. The patient was a 27-year-old woman who drank beer on weekends (500 cc/24 h) and showed slight elevations of transaminases and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase in two metabolic controls (AST 63, ALT 144, and GGT 227). The patient is leading a completely normal life with control of her cardiovascular risk factors.
