Summary
This study looks at whether non-invasive tests like blood counts and spleen size can accurately predict the presence and severity of enlarged veins in the esophagus (varices) in children with portal hypertension. Researchers will compare these simple markers to the standard method, an endoscopy, in 51 children under 18. The goal is to find a safer, less invasive way to screen for varices and identify those at high risk of bleeding.
