Abstract

Abstract: Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) is a common complication of decompensated liver cirrhosis or in patients with various portal-systemic shunt. Due to lack of typical clinical features and biochemical abnormally, MHE can only be diagnosed through psychometric or neurophysiological tests. And its incidence has increased to 30% to 84%. MHE affects daily life of patients, and it may make progress to overt hepatic encephalopathy without intervention. So far, there is no well established method to define its diagnosis as golden standard. This review mainly introduces the diagnostic methods applied at home and abroad.

Key words: Minimal hepatic encephalopathy, Diagnosis, Psychometric tests, Neurophysiological tests
