Abstract: Objective To explore the endoscopic features of portal hypertensive gastropathy（PHG）in patients with hepatitis B-induced liver cirrhosis. Methods Endoscopy was performed routinely in 108 patients with hepatocirrhosis of chronic hepatitis B and the incidence of PHG was analyzed retrospectively. Results PHG was found in 42（38.9%），and esophageal varices in 91（84.3%）patients；the Child-Pugh class was markedly related to the severity of PHG（P<0.05）；there was a significantly positive correlation between the esophageal varices and PHG（P<0.05）. Conclusion The incidence and severity of PHG are positively related to the liver function and esophageal varices.
