The study on clinical and pathological features of 81 cases with chronic viral hepatitis

Objective To evaluate some aspects about the clinical and pathological diagnoses of chronic viral hepatitis. Methods A systematic and retrospective summary about 81 cases of chronic persistent hepatitis and chronic active hepatitis since 1990 was made. Results The clinical diagnoses conformed to pathological diagnoses in the most of 81 cases, but in some cases the two types of diagnoses were quite different. Conclusion For the differential diagnoses of chronic hepatitis , particularly between slight chronic persistent hepatitis and chronic active hepatitis, the correct diagnoses can be made by general analysis based on clinical features, results of biochemical and pathological detection.
