[Clinical aspects of stasis hepatomegaly].
The clinical characteristics of 100 patients diagnosed of congestive hepatomegaly have been reviewed in order to analyze some of the clinical and analytical parameters. The protocol for the study consisted of ten variables: sex, age, quality and size of the hepatomegaly, presence of hepatojugular reflux, jugular engorgement, ankle edema, abdominal ultrasonography, laboratory data and any other pertinent exploration. The mean age of the patients was 69 (31%). 65% of the cases had ankle edema. Prothrombin time was abnormal in 12% of the total series and in 27.9% of those with abnormal laboratory data. The most common ECG finding was atrial fibrillation (26%). The second most common was complete bundle block (21%).
