Brief Summary
Liver disease is an important cause of death in type 2 diabetes. In the population-based Verona Diabetes Study cirrhosis was the fourth leading cause of death and accounted for 4.4% of diabetes-related deaths. In another prospective cohort study , cirrhosis accounted for 12.5% of deaths in patients with diabetes. In Egypt hepatitis C virus the commonest of cirrhosis here has a prevalence of 9.8% in the population with the greatest burden over national health care bills. Patients with cirrhosis \& type 2 diabetes mellitus are always showing up in all hospital wards without a clear consensus of best management of their hyperglycemia.
