To Study Platelet Count/Spleen Diameter (PC/SD) Ratio as A Non-Invasive Marker for Predicting Esophageal Varices in Decompensated Chronic Liver Disease Patients

Abstract

Objectives –Esophageal varices is a life-threatening complication of decompensated lever disease but requires invasive testing for 
detection. This study aims to evaluate platelet count/spleen diameter as a non-invasive marker for detecting Esophageal varices in 
Decompensated chronic liver disease patients.
Materials and Method: This study was conducted at S.V.B.P. Hospital in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh. 100 admitted stable Decompensated 
chronic liver disease patients were taken for the study
