Abstract
Background: Dyspepsia is a frequent symptom in cirrhotic patients . Congestive gastropathy or portal hypertensive gastropathy (PHG) was detected as a possible cause of sustained dyspepsia in 40% of these patients , and prolonged gastric emptying time(GE) with decrease gastric wall compliance were detected in cirrhoric patients .
Electrogastrography (EGG) is a non-invasive method to study gastric myoelectrical activity from the body surface by electrodes . whereas, an ultrasonographic method can be used for the estimation of gastric emptying by measuring what so called half emptying and full emptying times with other parameters.
Aim of this work is to study patterns of EGG & ultrasnographic GE. In cirrhotic patients with or without PHG . 45 patients were chosen for this study and were divided into 3 groups ; group 1 is cirrhotic patients with PHG negative upper gastrointestinal ( U.G.I.T.) endoscopy & group 2 is cirrhotic patients with PHG positive & group 3 is healthy subjects taken as control .
