[Clinical characteristics of forms of chronic hepatitis].
Chronic hepatitis is now the general problem in hepatology. The diagnosis of this disease remains difficult in spite of continuous development of diagnostic methods. 57 patients (25 female and 32 male) with chronic hepatitis were studied. They were divided in three groups (I - chronic active hepatitis, II - chronic persisting hepatitis, III - chronic reactive hepatitis) according to the result of the liver biopsy. The clinical data (from medical examination and laboratory analysis) in the respective forms of chronic hepatitis were compared. The analysis of 14 subjective and objective symptoms in this three groups of patients has shown the certain differences between them. It may play a role in the diagnosis of the form of chronic hepatitis.
