The gammaglobulin-fibrinogen index (GgF) was determined in 30 healthy subjects and 160 patients with chronic hepatic diseases related to HB infection. The group included 60 cases of chronic active hepatitis, 60 with compensated cirrhosis, 28 with decompensated cirrhosis, and 12 with primary hepatic carcinoma. The GgF index was found to be useful for preliminary diagnosis of the hepatic neoplasm and for differentiation of similar clinical pictures of decompensated cirrhosis and primary hepatic carcinoma.
