Abstract:
Patients were divided into normal control, liver fibrosis and liver cirrhosis groups. The patients with cirrhosis were categorized according to the Child Pugh classification into Child A,Child B and Child C groups. The waveforms of the right hepatic vein were examined with ultrasonography. HV(hepatic vein)0 waveforms were found in all the control subjects, 70.8% in those with fibrosis and 40.7% in those with cirrhosis. HV1 were found in 16.7% of those with fibrosis and 17.8% of those with cirrhosis. HV2 were found in 12.5% of those with fibrosis and 41.5% of those with cirrhosis. Statistical analysis showed that HV2 waveforms were significantly more often in patients with cirrhosis than in those with fibrosis. HV2 waveforms in the right hepatic vein are suggestive of liver cirrhosis.
