Abstract

The Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) score (range: 5-15) and the Model for End Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score (range: 6-40) have been used for predicting the survival of liver cirrhosis patients. Both scores are general indicators of the severity of liver failure in patients with end-stage liver disease, and have been validated for short- and long- term survival in cirrhosis. The liver cirrhosis is the development of hepatic fibrosis and regenerative nodules as a result of chronic liver injury that may lead to portal hypertension and end-stage liver diseases, such as chronic viral hepatitis, cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and liver failure. The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the aspects of CTP classification and MELD scores for predicting the severity of the cirrhosis to the liver transplantation patients.
