Abstract:
A retrospective cohort study was conducted where files of 120 “difficult to treat” patients were randomly selected from the follow-up clinic. Patients’ data were collected before and after treatment including history taking, clinical examination, laboratory investigations, and abdominal ultrasonography. Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) scores were calculated. Results: There was no significant difference in mean Child score between patients with and without SVR before treatment, while this difference became significant after treatment. The patients without complications showed a highly significant decrease in their mean Child score after treatment, while patients with complications did not show any significant differences
