This study aimed to elucidate the common causes of minimal periportal fibrosis in Egypt. Out of 50 patients having minimal periportal fibrosis, 22 (44%) had schistosomiasis as a sole aetiology, 33 (66%) had combined schistosomiasis with both HBV and HCV. Rare causes were tuberculosis in 4% of the patients and HIV in 2%. No cause could be elicited in 14% of the patients. It is concluded that although schistosomiasis is the commonest cause of minimal hepatic fibrosis in Egypt, yet it is not the sole aetiological factor.
本研究旨在阐明埃及门周轻度纤维化的常见病因。在50名门周轻度纤维化患者中，22例（44%）病因仅为血吸虫病，33例（66%）为血吸虫病合并乙肝和丙肝。罕见病因包括4%的患者为结核病，2%的患者为艾滋病。14%的患者未发现病因。结论是，虽然血吸虫病是埃及肝轻度纤维化最常见的病因，但并非唯一的病因。
