Year: 2024
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: This study aims to evaluate hematological abnormalities in patients with decompensated chronic liver disease. A crosssectional analysis of 100 patients was conducted, focusing on the prevalence of anemia, leukocyte anomalies, thrombocytopenia, and pancytopenia. Results indicated a high prevalence of anemia and thrombocytopenia among the studied patients, with significant associations found between hematological abnormalities and disease complications. Early identification and management of these abnormalities could reduce morbidity and mortality in affected patients.
