Hyperplasia-the liver is one of the few organs in the human body that can partially regenerate. this is a form of compensatoryhyperplasia. the stimuli to hepatocyte mitotic activity cease when the liver has attained its normal size. apoptosis is singlecell death and frequently occurs with viral hepatitis. dysplasia is disordered epithelial cell growth that can be premalignant.fatty change can lead to hepatomegaly; this is not a regenerative process, but is the result of toxic hepatocyte injury.hydropic change, or cell swelling, does not produce regeneration. hepatocytes can reenter the cell cycle and proliferate toregenerate the liver; they do not just increase in size.bp7 13bp8 4pbd7 67pbd8 89
