Abstract– The present study was undertaken to address the prevalence of thrombocytopenia, relation of thrombocytopenia in cirrhosis to severity of disease ,bleeding complications and safety of the usual intervention procedures in cirrhosis with thrombocytopenia. Material and method– 179 patients were included and platelet count along with other required investigations were performed. The correlation between thrombocytopenia and severity and bleeding complications were assessed. Results and observation– The prevalence of thrombocytopenia was 75.41% in this study. Child Pugh Score and MELD score had negative correlation with platelet count. Conclusion– Thrombocytopenia is a very common manifestation in cirrhosis of liver. The platelet count decreases as the Child Pugh Score increases. MELD score has strong negative correlation with platelet count. There is no absolute correlation between UGI bleeding and thrombocytopenia.
