Frequency of thrombophilic gene polymorphisms in cirrhotic patients with splanchnic vein thrombosis in comparison with cirrhotic patients without thrombosis

ABSTRACT

Background and Objectives: Visceral thrombosis especially hepatic vein thrombosis deteriorates the disease in ciniiotic patients. Thrombophilic genotypes are seen in most cirrhotic patients with portal vein thrombosis. The aim of this study is the comparison of thrombophilic genes frequency in cirrhotic patients with splanchnic veins thrombosis versus cirrhotic patients without thrombosis
