The value of seric activity of
adenosine deaminase
has been detected in four group of patients with liver disease: acute viral hepatitis in 32 cases, liver cirrhosis in 30 cases, liver neoplasia in 12 cases, and cholelithiasis in 20 cases, against 30 patients as a control group. In addition, we studied 3 patients with
alcoholic hepatitis
and 1 with biliary cirrhosis. The highest level was found in hepatic cirrhosis and viral hepatitis the value being statistically significant and superior to the levels of the control group in 100% of the cases. This level was higher than normal in patients with liver tumor. The level was normal or mildly elevated in patients with cholelithiasis. The level was normal in patients with
alcoholic hepatitis
and high in biliary cirrhosis but lower than that observed in alcoholic cirrhosis.
