Overview

The gold standard diagnostic test for jaundice caused by cirrhosis is liver biopsy, although it is rarely necessary for diagnosis or treatment. Sample of the liver is obtained bypercutaneous approach, transjugular approach, and laparoscopic radiographically- guided fine-needle approach. A biopsy is not necessary if the clinical, laboratory, and radiologic data suggest cirrhosis. There is a small but significant risk associated with liver biopsy, and cirrhosis itself predisposes to the complications of liver biopsy.

Other Diagnostic Studies

Liver Biopsy

Features of liver biopsy are as follows:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

The main cause of mortality after percutaneous liver biopsy is intraperitoneal haemorrhage as shown in a retrospective Italian study of 68,000 percutaneous liver biopsies in which all six patients who died did so from intraperitoneal haemorrhage. Three of these patients had had a laparotomy, and all had either cirrhosis or malignant disease, both of which are risk factors for bleeding.
