ABSTRACT
A battery of liver function tests including estimations of serum bilirubin, turbidity tests, serum protein, prothrombin activity, serum alkaline phosphatase and transaminase, was done before and after Hassab's decongestion operation in twelve male hepatic schistosomiasis patients with resistant ascites. Decrease of zinc sulphate turbidity, serum enzymes, total globulins together with increase of serum albumin and prothrombin activity was recorded after operation. Improvement of hepatic and intestinal blood flow, splenectomy, amelioration of hepatic functions and renal haemodynamics are supposed to be underlying factors
