Background: Liver involvement is common in typhoid and may be in the form of hepatomegaly, jaundice, biochemical and histopathological changes. Isolated hepatomegaly is of no clinical significance, but its occurrence with jaundice though rare indicates liver involvement as a result of generalized toxemia or invasion by salmonella. Significant liver damage may have occurred without obvious clinical signs or abnormal laboratory tests. Aim of study: Assessment of liver functionin typhoid fever in children diagnosed by widal agglutination test by biochemical test. Setting: Fifty four cases of typhoid fever less than 16 years admitted inPaediatric Department MY Hospital, MGM Medical College Indore, comprised the clinical material for the study. Design: Cross sectional study. Method: 54 children with enteric fever were taken after making clinical diagnosis, confirmed by Widaltest and LFT was performed to assess liver involvement. Result: Hepatomegaly was seen in 19[35%] cases and tender hepatomegaly was seen in 2 cases of the study group. S.G.O.T was raised in 27[50%] cases and S.G.P.T was raised in 25 [46%] cases out of total 54 cases. Most of the cases with raised S.G.O.T and S.G.P.T presented in the 2nd week of fever. Serum bilirubin was raised in only 2 cases. Conclusion: hepatic involvement is common in typhoid fever. Typhod hepatitis should be diagnosed and manage accordingly.
