Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between the stage of hepatic fibrosis and the diameter of portal vein (DPV) and middle hepatic vein (DMHV) in patients with chronic hepatitis B.Methods 320 patients with chronic hepatitis B were evaluated by ultrasonography.The DPV and DMHV were measured,and their correlation with the degree of hepatic fibrosis was analyzed after liver biopsy.Results DPV was positively related with the degree of hepatic fibrosis(r =0.384,P =0.032),while DMHV was negatively related with the degree of hepatic fibrosis (r =-0.521,P =0.015).The DPV and HMDV in S4 were bigger than those of S0,S1,S2 and S3,and statistical differences existed among them (DPV∶z =0.334,P =0.032 ; DMH∶z =0.161,P =0.015).The best value of S4 diagnosing by DPV was 13mm.The best value of S4 diagnosing by DMHV was 6mm.The area under the curve of ROC for DPV and DMHV in ≥S2 was 0.753 and 0.758 respectively.It in≥S3 was 0.795 and 0.802 respectively.It in ≥S4 was 0.797 and 0.828 respectively.The area under the curve of ROC for combination of DPV and HMDV was 0.866,which was higher than that of DPV and HMDV.Conclusion There is a good correlation between DPV,DMHV and the stage of hepatic fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B.Combination of DPV and HMDV has clinical significance for diagnosing early hepatic fibrosis.
