Lipase of 54/923 cases increased in viral hepatitis group with an abnormal rate of 5.85％.Lipase level of viral hepatitis patients gradually increased with the rising total bilirubin levels,and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜0.0l).Among 54 viral hepatitis cases with elevated lipase,11 died.The sustained abnormal rate of lipase (6/11) of the death group was statistically significant vs.4.65％ (2/43) of the survival group(P ＜0.01).Thus viral hepatitis could be concomitant with elevated lipase and elevated lipase might promote the progression of liver disease.The continuing rise of lipase is correlated with the severity and prognosis of the patients.
