PLATELET COUNT TO SPLEEN DIAMETER RATIO AS A PREDICTOR OF ESOPHAGEAL VARICES IN PATIENTS OF LIVER CIRRHOSIS DUE TO HEPATITIS C VIRUS

ABSTRACT Objective: This study was carried out to find diagnostic accuracy of platelet count to spleen diameter ratio as a predictor of esophageal varices in patients of liver cirrhosis due to Hepatitis C virus taking upper gastrointestinal tract endoscopy as gold standard. Design: Cross-sectional s...
