Abstract
Background: Esophageal varices is one of the major complications of portal hypertension, occur in approximately 30%-70% of cirrhotic patients.As portal hypertension is a consequence of liver fibrosis, serum fibrosis biomarkers could serve as non invasive predictors for esophageal varices and their grades. Aim of Study:Determine the frequency and grading of esophageal varices in a group of cirrhoti...
